History

In the Three Sisters farming system, which outcome arises from interplanting maize with beans utilizing bacterial nitrogen fixation?

A)Nitrogen availability in the soil increases
B)Maize susceptibility towards blight increases
C)Stalk lodging in maize increases sharply
D)Soil carbonate concentration decreases mildly

💡 Explanation

Increased nitrogen occurs because beans, via symbiotic *nitrogen fixation*, convert atmospheric nitrogen into usable forms, therefore nitrogen availability to maize increases, rather than causing blight or staking issues because nitrogen is directly consumed by the maize crops.
