What is grafting used in crop production
Economics
ScanSolve AI Answer
Grafting is a horticultural technique used in crop production where tissues of plants are joined so as to continue their growth together. The upper part of the combined plant is called the scion while the lower part is called the rootstock. This method is used to combine desirable traits from two different plants, such as disease resistance from the rootstock and fruit quality from the scion, or to propagate plants that do not grow well from seed.
