5. What three environmental factors influence food production and name the ecological problems associated with these influences

Explained

Explanation:

three environmental factors that influence food production are:-

1. Climate: food production is directly linked with climate of the place, under different climates different kind of crops are grown. Wheat needs proper sunlight, whereas rice needs plenty of water, it means it grown at places where falls are plenty. Cotton requires temperate climate, it cannot grown in cold regions.

2. Soil: The soil Texture and soil also plays a vital role in crop production. Some soil are less fertile and some are more. Some soil are good for one kind of crop while other is good for other kind of soil. India the Regur or black soil is best for cotton production whereas alluvial soil is best for wheat production. Similarly, laterite soil is best for coffee production.

3. Geographical location and regional variation: Location of the crop field also influences the crop production, some places are good only for a particular crop because of its unique soil. Moreover, the altitude of the places also effects the kind of crop. Generally higher altitude places are colder for example in India Apples are grown only in Parts of Himachal and Kashmir because they are high altitude places making it favorable for Apple
