Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
This question requires identifying the correct statements about Indian crops, focusing on cultivation requirements and production/yield data for the 2020-21 period.
Wheat is a Rabi crop, typically grown in cooler, drier conditions. It requires moderate rainfall during the growing season and warm temperatures during ripening. The statement's assertion of needing "plenty of heat" and "plenty of rain" is inaccurate for optimal wheat cultivation.
Cotton cultivation requires a long, warm growing season and is sensitive to frost. A minimum number of frost-free days ensures the crop can mature properly. The requirement of at least 210 frost-free days is a standard condition for successful cotton cultivation.
This statement concerns the yield (output per unit area) of sugarcane in Tamil Nadu for the 2020-21 agricultural year. Data analysis indicates that Tamil Nadu reported one of the highest sugarcane yields in India during that period, demonstrating high productivity.
This statement focuses on the leading producer of groundnut in India for 2020-21. Gujarat is historically a major groundnut producing state. Statistical data for the mentioned year confirms that Gujarat was indeed the leading producer.
Statements B, C, and D accurately describe the conditions or statistics related to cotton, sugarcane, and groundnut cultivation in India. Statement A incorrectly outlines the requirements for wheat.
Therefore, the correct combination of statements is B, C, and D.
