Which of the following is a reason why farmers frequently use a DSS to determine appropriate fertilization and irrigation?

Multiple Choice

Because most farms today are cover a large amount of acreage and plant many different types of crops a season, it is not possible for one farmer to determine differing amounts of irrigation and fertilization needed.

A DSS can be used to predict the weather, eliminating the need for guessing how much irrigation and fertilization is needed.

Weather patterns frequently change and cannot be predicted far in advance; therefore, the fertilization and irrigation needs are not consistent for a farmer$$s crops.

Because most farms today are corporate$-$run, there is not the historical knowledge of what levels of irrigation and fertilization that was previously past down among families.
