Sample Haryana BSEH Secondary NSQF Agriculture Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Haryana BSEH Secondary NSQF Agriculture exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1In vegetable production, irrigation mainly supplies water to which plant part zone for active uptake?
A.Flower petals during pollination
B.Only the upper leaf surface
C.Root zone in the soil
D.Fruit skin only after harvest
Explanation: Irrigation wets the soil so roots can absorb water and dissolved nutrients from the active root zone.
2Which simple field observation commonly indicates that a vegetable crop needs irrigation?
A.Wilting of leaves during the hotter part of the day that does not recover quickly
B.Deep green, fully turgid leaves all day
C.Standing water covering the bed for many hours
D.Cracking of ripe tomato fruits only
Explanation: Temporary midday wilt that fails to recover, dry topsoil, and slowed growth are practical irrigation cues for vegetable growers.
3Why is water quality important when irrigating vegetable crops?
A.Any water always improves soil structure equally
B.Water quality only matters after harvest packaging
C.Poor-quality water can raise soil salinity or sodicity and harm crop growth
D.Vegetables absorb only distilled pure water
Explanation: Saline or sodic irrigation water can accumulate salts, damage roots, reduce yield, and degrade soil physical condition over time.
4Which irrigation method applies water drop-by-drop near the plant root zone through emitters?
A.Drip irrigation
B.Flood irrigation of the whole field
C.Basin flooding of orchards only
D.Rain-gun without pipelines
Explanation: Drip (trickle) irrigation delivers water slowly through emitters at the base of plants, achieving high water-use efficiency.
5Compared with flood irrigation, a major advantage of drip irrigation in vegetable crops is:
A.No need for any filtration or maintenance
B.Higher water-use efficiency and less wetting of inter-row weeds
C.Complete elimination of all crop diseases forever
D.It always uses more water than flooding
Explanation: Drip places water in the root zone, reducing evaporation, runoff, and weed growth in dry inter-rows, improving water-use efficiency.
6Furrow irrigation is most suitable when:
A.The entire land is permanently submerged like a paddy pond only
B.Crops are grown on ridges/beds with water flowing in channels between rows
C.Only rooftop pots are grown indoors
D.No slope exists and water cannot move at all
Explanation: In furrow irrigation, water advances along furrows between crop rows or ridges, wetting the root zone from the sides.
7Sprinkler irrigation distributes water by:
A.Spraying water into the air so it falls like rain over the crop canopy/soil
B.Injecting water only into plant stems
C.Pouring water only into sealed glass bottles
D.Submerging the entire field under 1 metre of standing water always
Explanation: Sprinklers atomize or jet water so droplets fall over the field surface, simulating rainfall.
8A 'critical stage' for irrigation in vegetable crops means:
A.Any stage when the market price is highest
B.Only the day after harvest
C.A stage when fertilizers must never be applied
D.A growth stage when water stress causes large yield or quality loss
Explanation: Critical stages (e.g., flowering, fruit set, tuberization) are periods when moisture stress sharply reduces yield or quality.
9Which practice helps save irrigation water in vegetable gardens?
A.Mulching the soil surface and irrigating only when needed
B.Irrigating heavily every hour day and night
C.Removing all organic matter from soil always
D.Leaving broken pipelines unrepaired to wet paths
Explanation: Mulches reduce evaporation; scheduling irrigation to crop need and fixing leaks improves water productivity.
10Excessive irrigation of vegetable fields most commonly leads to:
A.Waterlogging, poor aeration, and greater risk of root diseases
B.Automatic increase of soil organic carbon only
C.Complete sterilisation of all soil microbes forever
D.Immediate conversion of clay into pure sand
Explanation: Over-irrigation saturates soil pores, reduces oxygen for roots, leaches nutrients, and favours damping-off and other root problems.
