im pretty sure it isnt c right becaue the fertalizers but i am not sure

blues · Answer

The question asks specifically about reducing fossil fuel use. You are right about C not being correct because you need fossil fuels to create and transport fertilizer, and using more of it would mean using more fossil fuels at the same time.

The correct answer involves a similar concept. It hinges on the fact that food produced other places needs to be transported using fossil fuels, so to reduce the amount of fossil fuels used up, which option involves producing food on-site?
