VEGETABLES

The National Administration of Food and Agriculture is planning to regulate the growth of various kinds of agricultural produce, such that the quality of the produce in the market can be monitored. Imagine that you belong to a panel of advisors for the Administration of Food and Agriculture to provide help in drafting the regulation. In the chapter for vegetables, you want to include all vegetables in the chapter, but not other kinds of agricultural produce, which would be covered in other chapters. Because the regulation affects vegetable farmers nationwide, a clear categorization of vegetables will thus ensure a fair and reasonable regulation.

Consider each of the following items, and decide whether acting in the panel of advisors, you would classify the item in the category of vegetables.

Circle ’Y’ if you think the item should be included in the category.

Circle ’N’ if you think the item should not be included in the category.

Circle ’Ø’ if you don’t know the meaning of the word.

You have to choose between ’Y’ and ’N’ even if you find it difficult to decide.

Circle ’Ø’ only when you don’t know the meaning of the word.
