Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): Crop Rotation exerts most effect on pests having a narrow plant host range and limited mobility
Statement (II): Crop Rotation exerts most effect on pests having a wide plant host range and limited mobility
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

• A. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are correct
• B. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are incorrect
• C. Statement (I) is correct but Statement (II) is incorrect
