Neco 2025 Geography Question 24
Practice objective / multiple choice question 24 from the 2025 Neco Geography examination.
Two regions are being evaluated for suitability for rice cultivation. The suitability index is calculated as\n\(S = 0.4\left(\frac{R}{1200}\right) + 0.3\left(1-\frac{|T-27|}{27}\right) + 0.2\left(1-\frac{|pH-6.5|}{6.5}\right) - 0.1\left(\frac{D}{1000}\right)\),\nwhere \(R\) = average annual rainfall (mm), \(T\) = mean annual temperature (°C), \(pH\) = soil pH, and \(D\) = population density (people per km\(^2\)). For Region X: \(R=1400\) mm, \(T=26\)°C, \(pH=6.2\), \(D=250\). For Region Y: \(R=1100\) mm, \(T=28\)°C, \(pH=6.8\), \(D=150\). Which region has the higher suitability index for rice? Provide the region name.
