What can increase household food diversity in agriculture?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Balanced production of cereals, pulses, vegetables, fruits and animal products
Balanced production of cereals, pulses, vegetables, fruits and animal products makes different food groups and nutrients available to the household. This improves both dietary diversity and nutrition. Producing only one crop limits food choices, so option B is not correct. Exam tip: link food diversity with the availability of multiple food groups and nutrients.
