AnswerAnswer: Option D
Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
CRI is the crown root initiation stage in any wheat plantation which comes in 20 - 25 days after sowing. So, in case of a water crisis when only one irrigation can be provided, then it should be done at the CRI stage, which is the most crucial stage for water requirement.
