Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Industries emit a lot of gas and smoke, which can be bad for crops. It's possible for toxic chemicals to mix with carbon dioxide in the air, which plants then utilise. By interacting with water, harmful substances can also lead to soil pollution. Because they generate a lot of toxic waste and hazardous fumes, factories and industries should be located far from agricultural land. When this poisonous waste is released, it pollutes the soil and water. As a result of the agricultural area becoming polluted, the crops suffer. The crops that are currently growing on agricultural land are harmed by the toxic gases that are discharged into the atmosphere.
