Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): It is impossible to manage plant parasitic nematodes in protected cultivation.
Statement (II): plant-parasitic nematodes build up in the soil in the protected cultivation systems repeatedly after the application of management interventions.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

• A. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are true
• 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:

In competitive exams, absolute terms like "impossible" are almost always scientifically incorrect.
This can help you identify Statement (I) as false, while recognizing that greenhouse pest resurgence (Statement II) is a well-known agricultural challenge.
