Gaaffii 1
Which cereal crop ranks first in terms of the total area of production in Ethiopia?
A.Maize
B.Teff
C.Wheat
D.Sorghum
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: B Teff
Sababa
According to the textbook, teff ranks first in terms of the area of production in Ethiopia, while maize ranks second.
Gaaffii 2
Why is sorghum commonly referred to as ‘the camel crop’?
A.It can remain dormant during dry periods and resume growth when moisture is available
B.It is grown exclusively to feed working camels in arid lowlands
C.It can only be transported to market on the backs of camels
D.It requires more water per season than any other cereal crop
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: A It can remain dormant during dry periods and resume growth when moisture is available
Sababa
Sorghum is called 'the camel crop' because it has the capacity to stay dormant during dry periods and start growing again as soon as there is sufficient soil moisture.
Gaaffii 3
What is the botanical difference between cereal crops and pulse crops during seedling emergence?
A.Cereals are monocots producing a single leaf, while pulses are dicots with two cotyledons
B.Cereals are dicots with two leaves, while pulses are monocots with one leaf
C.Cereals produce underground pods, while pulses produce grass-like tillers
D.Cereals fix nitrogen in root nodules, while pulses absorb nitrogen only from rain
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: A Cereals are monocots producing a single leaf, while pulses are dicots with two cotyledons
Sababa
Cereal crops are monocots whose seeds have a single cotyledon (producing a single leaf at emergence), whereas pulse crops are dicots containing two cotyledons.
Gaaffii 4
Which of the following pulse crops is specifically identified as an important export crop in Ethiopia?
A.Field pea
B.Faba bean
C.Haricot bean
D.Barley
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: C Haricot bean
Sababa
The textbook explicitly highlights haricot bean (common bean) as an important export crop in Ethiopia.
Gaaffii 5
Why does teff require 4 to 5 cultivations and a very smooth seedbed compared to other cereal crops?
A.Teff has deep taproots that need loose subsoil
B.Teff has a much smaller grain size than most cereals
C.Teff seeds must be sown at a depth of over 10 cm
D.Teff plants are immune to weeds in cloddy soil
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: B Teff has a much smaller grain size than most cereals
Sababa
Because teff grains are very small, the soil must be cultivated 4 to 5 times and leveled without large clods so the tiny seeds make good contact with the soil.
Gaaffii 6
What visual indicator shows that a maize plant is fully mature and ready for harvest?
A.The husks turn bright green
B.The seeds develop a black layer at the bottom tip
C.The leaves fall off and the stem turns purple
D.The grain moisture rises above 40 percent
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: B The seeds develop a black layer at the bottom tip
Sababa
Maize is ready for harvest when the grains form a distinct black layer at the bottom tip.
Gaaffii 7
Why must the application rate of nitrogen fertilizer be reduced when producing barley for malting?
A.High nitrogen levels attract army worms to the field
B.High nitrogen levels reduce the quality of the malt
C.High nitrogen stops the germination of barley seeds entirely
D.High nitrogen turns the barley grains completely black
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: B High nitrogen levels reduce the quality of the malt
Sababa
For barley used in malting, the nitrogen rate must be lowered because high nitrogen application decreases malt quality.
Gaaffii 8
Which parasitic weed is known to cause massive yield losses in sorghum fields in Ethiopia?
A.Striga
B.Atrazine
C.Smut
D.Aphid
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: A Striga
Sababa
Striga is a parasitic weed that severely affects sorghum production and causes huge yield losses unless managed with hand weeding, crop rotation, and resistant varieties.
Gaaffii 9
According to the textbook, what is the average national yield of maize in Ethiopia?
A.14.6 quintals (1.46 t) per hectare
B.19.0 quintals (1.90 t) per hectare
C.24.5 quintals (2.45 t) per hectare
D.32.5 quintals (3.25 t) per hectare
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: D 32.5 quintals (3.25 t) per hectare
Sababa
The textbook states that the average national yield of maize is 32.5 quintals (3.25 tonnes) per hectare, which is the highest per-unit yield among Ethiopian cereals.
Gaaffii 10
Which pair of crops both grow suitably at an altitude range of 1800 to 3000 meters above sea level in Ethiopia?
A.Wheat and faba bean
B.Sorghum and maize
C.Haricot bean and sorghum
D.Maize and haricot bean
Deebii fi sababa agarsiisi
Deebii: A Wheat and faba bean
Sababa
Both wheat and faba bean grow best at highland altitudes ranging between 1800 and 3000 meters above sea level.
