    Question: Which one of the following is most suitable used as a filler crop in a mango orchard?

    Options:

    Aonla
    Grape
    Pomegranate
    Papaya

    ✅Explanation:

    • Papaya is considered a suitable filler crop in mango orchards for several reasons:
    -Fast Growth and Early Yield: Papaya trees grow quickly and start bearing fruit within a year, providing an additional income source while the mango trees are still maturing.
    -Minimal Competition: Papaya has a shallow root system that doesn't compete extensively with the deeper roots of mango trees for nutrients and water
    -Different Harvest Seasons: Papaya and mango have different harvest seasons, reducing labor conflicts and ensuring a continuous income stream for the farmer.
    -Pest and Disease Management: Papaya can attract beneficial insects that prey on pests affecting mango trees, helping in natural pest control
