Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement about the boreal forest being well-suited for agriculture due to its short growing season and mineral-poor soil is incorrect. The boreal forest, also known as the taiga, is characterized by long, cold winters and short, cool summers, making agriculture difficult. The soil in this biome is often nutrient-poor due to the slow decomposition of organic matter in the cold climate.
