Answer

Artificial pollination is the type of pollination carried out by humans to produce varieties with better quality flowers and seeds. In this process the pollen grains from the ripe anther of a plant are carefully removed and dusted on the mature stigma of another plant. Then the pollinated flowers are covered with polythene bags till fruits and seeds are produced. The seeds are sown in the next season and the offspring with better features are produced.
