Q3. Based on the above passage, the following assumptions have been made:
1. Organic farming is inherently unsafe for both farmers and consumers.
2. Farmers and consumers need to be educated about eco-friendly food. Which of the assumptions given above is/are correct?
Detailed Solution
Statement 1 is incorrect because the passage attributes potential harm in organic farming to factors like lack of regulation, difficulty in sourcing proper organic fertilizers, and insufficient research on application doses, rather than organic farming being 'inherently' unsafe. The word 'inherently' makes the statement too strong.
Statement 2 is a valid assumption. The passage explicitly mentions that farmers and consumers are 'confused about what products are best for them' and that issues like dosage are 'not well-researched or regulated.' This directly implies a need for better education and guidance regarding safe and eco-friendly organic practices for both farmers and consumers.
