Question

Prepp Team · Accepted Answer

This question requires matching different agricultural land use categories with their specific characteristics. Understanding these terms is crucial for classifying and analyzing land usage patterns in agriculture.

Agricultural Land Use Categories: Definitions

We need to correctly associate each land use category from List-I with its corresponding description from List-II:

List-I (Agricultural Land use Category)	List-II (Characteristics)
(A) Culturable Waste Land	(I) Land left uncultivated for one or less than one agricultural year.
(B) Current Fallow	(II) Land left uncultivated for more than five years.
(C) Fallow other than Current Fallow	(III) Physical extent of land sown and harvested.
(D) Net Sown Area	(IV) Land left uncultivated for more than one year but less than five years.

Matching Agricultural Land Use Categories

Let's go through each category in List-I and find its correct match in List-II:

(A) Culturable Waste Land: This refers to land that has the potential for cultivation but has been left unused for a significant period. Based on standard definitions, land left uncultivated for more than five years falls into this category. Therefore, (A) matches with (II).
(B) Current Fallow: This is land that was previously cultivated but is intentionally left without cultivation for a short period to restore its fertility. Specifically, it means leaving the land uncultivated for one or less than one agricultural year. Thus, (B) matches with (I).
(C) Fallow other than Current Fallow: This category includes land that is left uncultivated for a period longer than 'Current Fallow' but not as long as 'Culturable Waste Land'. This means the land has been left uncultivated for more than one year but less than five years. So, (C) matches with (IV).
(D) Net Sown Area: This is the most straightforward category, representing the actual area where crops are sown and harvested during a particular agricultural season. It is the physical extent of land on which crops are sown and harvested. Therefore, (D) matches with (III).

Correct Option Identification

Based on the matching we've done:

(A) matches with (II)
(B) matches with (I)
(C) matches with (IV)
(D) matches with (III)

Comparing this with the given options, Option 1 correctly represents this matching: (A) - (II), (B) - (I), (C) - (IV), (D) - (III).
