The correct Answer is:
To determine which methods are suitable for increasing food production, we will analyze each option provided: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Agrochemical Based Agriculture**: - This method involves the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides to enhance crop yield. - The main goal is to maximize production by providing essential nutrients and controlling pests that can damage crops. - **Conclusion**: This method is effective in increasing food production. 2. **Organic Agriculture**: - Organic agriculture focuses on growing crops without synthetic chemicals, using natural fertilizers (like compost) and organic pest control methods. - While the primary aim is to enhance the nutritional value of food and promote environmental sustainability, it also aims to increase crop yield through organic means. - **Conclusion**: This method is also suitable for increasing food production. 3. **Genetically Engineered Crop-Based Agriculture**: - This approach involves modifying the genetic makeup of crops to enhance desirable traits such as pest resistance, drought tolerance, and increased nutritional content. - Genetically engineered crops can lead to higher yields and more efficient food production. - **Conclusion**: This method is effective in increasing food production as well. ### Final Answer: All three methods (I, II, and III) are suitable for increasing food production. Therefore, the correct option is **1, 2, and 3**. ---
