Consider the given statement and decide which of the given assumptions is/are implicit in the statement. Statement: Many farmers are taking up organic farming. Assumptions: I. Organic farming is easy to practice. II. Organic farming is more beneficial to farmers. Correct Answer Only assumption II is implicit.

The statement tells that many farmers are selecting organic farming practices.

  • Thus, it is safe to assume that organic farming must be more beneficial to the farmers compared to other types of farming since a lot of them are taking it up. So, assumption II is implicit.
  • Because a lot of farmers are taking up organic farming, it can be said that it is beneficial, but the type of benefit cannot be assumed. Whether or not it is easy; or does organic farming gives high produce or does the crops thus produced fetch higher market price - none of this is suggested or implicit in the statement. So, assumption I is not implicit.

Hence the correct answer is option 4.

Organic fertilisers can produce a lower crop yield and farmers may find it difficult to change to organic methods if they have been using non-organic methods for some time. Farmers should, therefore, consider the longer-term impacts of their decisions. c. Either young persons are getting cleverer each year or examinations are becoming easier for students to pass.
