The correct answer is Option (1) → Promotes monoculture, single crop in the same space.

The question asks for the statement that is NOT true of organic farming. Organic farming grows crops without chemical fertilisers, pesticides and weedicides, and keeps the soil fertile and pests in check by natural means.

Option (1) Promotes monoculture, single crop in the same space. — Not true of organic farming (Correct). Organic farming relies on mixed cropping, intercropping and crop rotation; growing one crop again and again exhausts the soil and lets its pests multiply.

Option (2) Birds are introduced to eat insects. — True of organic farming (Incorrect). Pests are controlled by natural predators such as birds and ladybirds instead of chemical pesticides.

Option (3) Promotes weed suppression rather than weed elimination. — True of organic farming (Incorrect). Weeds are kept down by mulching, cover crops and rotation rather than wiped out with weedicides.

Option (4) Bone meal, human and animal waste are used as fertilizers. — True of organic farming (Incorrect). Organic manures such as compost, farmyard manure and bone meal take the place of chemical fertilisers.
