It helps in reducing manual labor and increasing the overall speed and productivity of the harvest. The harvester cuts the sugarcane stalks close to the ground and then collects them for further processing.

    What is sugarcane

    Correct Answer
    A. A grass
    Explanation
    Sugarcane is classified as a grass because it belongs to the Poaceae family, which includes other grasses such as wheat, rice, and corn. It has long, slender stalks and grows in tropical and subtropical regions. Sugarcane is primarily cultivated for its high sugar content and is used for producing sugar, molasses, and ethanol. Its grass-like characteristics, such as jointed stems and narrow leaves, further support its classification as a grass rather than a plant, fruit, or vegetable.
