Which is an example of a natural disaster in agriculture?

Correct answer: Flood

Direct answer: Option A, flood. A natural disaster is a damaging event caused by natural processes rather than by an ordinary farm decision. A flood occurs when excessive water covers land that is normally dry. It may submerge crops, wash away fertile soil, damage farm buildings, spoil stored produce and delay farm operations. Therefore, flood is a natural hazard and an agricultural risk. Option A is correct because it names an event that can directly damage farming through natural forces. Option B, correct price, is an economic condition or benefit, not a disaster. Option C, good seed, is an agricultural input that can help production, not a harmful event. Option D, safe storage, is a protective practice that reduces losses, not a disaster. The reasoning is simple: ask whether the option is a destructive natural event. Only flood fits. Other natural hazards can include drought, storms or earthquakes, but this question specifically offers flood. Memory cue: disaster harms the farm; price, seed and storage are management or production factors.
