The most explosive volcanic eruptions are associated with the type of volcano  <em><u>Composite Cones.</u></em>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The main types of volcanoes consist of cinder cones, composite cones, and shield volcanoes. All three have different characteristics from the shape or type of eruption.

1. Cinder cones type

Cinder cones are the most common type of volcano. This type can be formed as a single volcano or as a parasitic volcano located near other volcanoes. The eruption material of this type varies, such as lava, hot clouds, and gas. Cinder cones volcanoes are generally small, only about 91 to 366 meters above sea level. This type is also called Scoria cones.

2. Composite cones type

Composite cones or Strato volcano are volcanoes formed from layers of lava, ash, and chunks of rock. This type is generally large, more than 2,000 meters above sea level. The slopes are steep with the deep and small caldera. The eruption type of composite cones is <u>very powerful</u> due to a deep magma source and high gas pressure.

3. Shield volcanoes type

A shield volcano is a large sloping volcano formed from very thin and thick lava that spreads in all directions. The peak of this volcano generally tends to be flat with a convex shape resembling a shield. The type of eruption is effusive with lava that melts around the mouth of the mountain. An example of this type of volcano is Mauna Loa in Hawaii.

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Declining agricultural production could lead to shortages of some food items like maize, wheat and some protein sources such as meat and eggs. This could, in turn, force South Africa to import more. Thirdly, a shortage of local produce could push up prices.
