How biotic and abiotic factors affect crop production and interaction of a community with the abiotic parts of the environment?
@ RK, abiotic factors mainly affect plant metabolites production and ultimately overall plant development; while biotic factors mainly affect on plant phytohormones production and ultimately plant defense.
Biotic variables such as insects, rats, pests and many more spread the disease and decrease the yield of crops. The crop elevation is killed by abiotic variables such as humidity, temperature, humidity, wind, rain, flood and much more.The resistant variety can withstand these variables and produce a high yield. Each and every abiotic factor (air, water, soil, sunlight, temperature, humidity) affects the biotic factors in the ecosystem. The abiotic factors in an ecosystem decide which biotic factors will survive in it and what will be their number. Biotic factors like insects, rodents, pests, and many more spread the disease and reduce crop production. Abiotic factors like humidity, temperature, moisture, wind, rain, flood, and many more destroy the crop raised. A biotic factor is a living thing that has an impact on another population of living things or on the environment. Abiotic factors do the same thing, but they are non-living. Together, biotic and abiotic factors make up an ecosystem. To survive, biotic factors need abiotic factors. Weeds, another biotic factor, also lower agricultural output by competing for nutrients, light, and space with the primary crop. Abiotic variables are natural elements that reduce agricultural productivity, such as temperature, salinity, and water logging. The interaction between biotic and abiotic factors influences species adaptations to their specific environment. Organisms must adapt to conditions set by their environments to survive and reproduce. Biotic factors are the living parts of an ecosystem, including all of the populations of organisms in the community. Organisms must obtain energy and matter from nonliving, or abiotic, parts of the environment. Mold and insects are the major biotic factors affecting grain quality in store. Moisture content and temperature of the grain as well as the store has to be monitored throughout storage period. Well -designed storage system should be constructed and provided with adequate ventilation capacity.Ecosystems have a complex set of interactions that happen between the biotic and abiotic components. The components of an ecosystem are linked to each other through the energy flows and nutrient cycles. The abiotic factors in an ecosystem decide which biotic factors will survive in it and what will be their number. The proportion of abiotic factors in an ecosystem is always changing as biotic factors use or excrete abiotic factors. Every biotic factor affects abiotic factors as well as other biotic factors around it.
