Q35 (UPPCS/2024) Geography › Indian Economic Geography

Which one of the following pairs (Crop - Peculiarity) is not correctly matched ?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B

Explanation

The pair in option B is incorrectly matched. According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare (Agricultural Statistics at a Glance), Bihar's contribution to India's total rice production typically ranges between 5% to 7%, not 15.7%. West Bengal is usually the leading producer, contributing approximately 13-14% of the national output.

  • Option A: In West Bengal, climatic conditions allow for three rice crops in an agricultural year, known as Aus, Aman, and Boro.
  • Option C: Uttar Pradesh consistently holds the largest area under rice cultivation in India (approx. 5.9 million hectares).
  • Option D: The 100 cm isohyet is the traditional geographical limit; areas receiving more than 100 cm rainfall are suitable for rice, while those receiving less generally require irrigation or shift to wheat/millets.
