• B. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are false.
• C. Statement (I) is true but Statement (II) is false.
• D. Statement (I) is false but Statement (II) is true.

Hint:

Due to high soil mobility, nitrogen is prone to leaching loss and requires split applications, whereas potassium is less mobile and is typically applied as a basal dose.
