Question

4. An oil palm plantation uses fertiliser at a rate of 350 kg per hectare. State the rate of

fertiliser consumption in g per m². [1 hectare = 10 000 m²]​

Answer 1

35

Explanation:

1kg= 1000g

1 hectare = 10 000 m²

1 kg/hct = 1000/10 000 g/m²

1 kg/hct = 1 / 10 g/m²

350 kg per hectare is equal to 350 / 10 = 35 g/m²
