Document Summary
Access to solar energy for photosynthesis (photo period, shading) Soil characteristics (depth, texture, acidity) and nutrient availability (e. g. nitrogen, phosphorus) Plowing opens up the soil and releases nitrogen. Inherent biological characteristics of plants and animals (adaptations) Stored in the form of fossil fuels through geological processes. Photosynthesis supplies plants and animals that provide food for us. Each silk has to be pollenated in order to ll all the kernels. Tassels supplies the pollen for the silk. If it"s a closed system, all the nitrogen returns to the soil. Nitrogen compounds within the soil might not be readily consumable for plants, the bacteria in plant roots prepare the nitrogen for the plant to consume. Farmed by many north american rst nations. Squash/bean plant leaves provides moisture and keeps the temperature cool. Bean uses the corn to climb to access to sunlight. When a farm only cultivates one speci c crop. The corn has access to the sun due to clear space.
