Apple
B.
Pear
C.
Litchi
D.
Date palm
Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
Hand pollination is most useful in Date palm fruit.
Hand-pollination is used with date palms to avoid wasting space and energy growing sufficient male plants for adequate natural pollination. Because of the level of labor involved, hand-pollination is only an option on a small scale, used chiefly by small market gardeners and owners of individual plants.
