જવાબ : Jowar is the third most important food crop with respect to area and production. It is mainly the crop of Kharif season. It is a rainfed crop grown in moist areas.
Leading states of production are: Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.

જવાબ : Millets are called coarse grains. They are important because they have high nutritional value and make an important part of the diet for poor people.
Most important millets are as follows:

1. Ragi —Leading producer is Karnataka, followed by Tamil Nadu. Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Uttaranchal, Sikkim etc are other important regions.
2. Jowar—Maharashtra is the leading producer followed by Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh.
3. Bajra—It grows well on sandy soils and shallow black soils. Rajasthan is the largest producer followed by Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat and Haryana.

જવાબ : Geographical conditions:

• Ragi grows well in dry regions.
• It grows well on red, black, sandy, loamy and shallow black soils.

જવાબ : Geographical conditions required for the growth of maize crop in .India:

1. It is a kharif crop which requires temperature between 21° C to 27° C. It requires moderate rainfall between 50-100 cm.
2. It grows well in old alluvial soils.
   Maize is a crop which is used both as food and fodder. In some states like Bihar, maize is grown in rabi season also. Maize production in India has increased due to factors like:
   • use of modern inputs such as HYV seeds;
   • use of fertilisers; and
   • use of irrigation facilities.
   • major maize producing state: Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.

જવાબ : Pulses of Rabi season: Tur (arhar), urad, moong.
Pulses of Kharif season: Masur, peas, gram.
Importance of pulses:

• For agriculture. Being leguminous crops, they help in restoring soil fertility by utilising nitrogen from the air (nitrogen fixation). Therefore, these are mostly grown in rotation with other crops.
• They need less moisture and survive even in dry conditions.

જવાબ : India is the second largest producer of sugarcane after Brazil.
Geographical conditions: It is a tropical as well as subtropical crop.

• It grows well in hot and humid climate.
• Temperature: 21°C to 27°C.
• Annual rainfall between 75 cm and 100 cms. Irrigation is required in the regions of low rainfall.
• It can be grown on a variety of soils.
• It needs manual labour from sowing to harvesting.

જવાબ : Six major oilseeds produced in India are: Groundnut, mustard, coconut, sesamum (til), soyabean, castor-seeds, linseed, sunflower and cotton-seeds.
Most of these oilseeds are edible and are used as cooking mediums.
Some are also used as raw material in the production of soap, cosmetics and ointments.

જવાબ : Geographical conditions:

1. It grows well in tropical and subtropical climates.
2. It requires deep, fertile, well drained soil, rich in humus and organic matter.
3. It requires warm and moist frost free climate round the year.
4. Frequent showers evenly distributed through the year ensure continuous growth of tender leaves.
5. Tea is a labour intensive industry. It requires abundant, cheap and skilled labour.
6. It is processed within tea gardens to restore its freshness.

જવાબ : India is the leading producer and exporter of tea in the world.
Three states producing tea in each of the following:

જવાબ : Coffee is the most important beverage crop of Southern India. India produces about 4% of the world’s coffee production.
Three major states which produce coffee are: Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, mainly in Nilgiri Hills. Initially its cultivation started in Baba Budan Hills.

જવાબ : Institutional reforms:
Steps taken by the government to bring about improvements in agriculture are termed as ‘Institutional Reforms’.
Some steps are:

1. Collectivisation and consolidation of land holdings to make them economically viable.
2. The green revolution based on the use of package technology and the White Revolution to increase milk production are important strategies which were initiated to improve agriculture.
3. Cooperation with farmers and Abolition of Zamindari system.
4. Provision of crop insurance to protect the farmers against losses caused by natural calamities, i.e. drought, flood, cyclone, fire and disease.
5. Establishment of ‘Grameen Banks’, Cooperative Societies and Banks for providing loan facilities to the farmers at lower rates of interest.
6. Kissan Credit Card (KCC), Personal Accident Insurance Scheme (PAIS) are some other schemes introduced by the government for the benefit of farmers.
7. Special weather bulletins and agricultural programmes for farmers were introduced on the Radio and TV.
8. Announcement of minimum support price, remunerative and procurement prices for crops to check the exploitation of farmers by speculators and middlemen and removing the elements of uncertainty.

જવાબ : Reforms in agriculture are necessary because of the following reasons:

1. Sustained uses of land without compatible techno-institutional changes have hindered the pace of agricultural development.
2. Most of the farmers still depend on monsoons because large parts of the country still do not have irrigation facilities.
3. Farmers still depend on natural fertility in order to carry on their agriculture, i.e., they lack material resources, e.g., fertilizers, etc.
4. Ours is an agricultural economy and about 63% of people depend on agriculture for employment and livelihood, therefore reforms have to be implemented.
5. For raising the agricultural production and productivity levels to produce sufficient food for the growing population.
6. To overcome environmental, economic and social constraints, agricultural reforms have to be seriously implemented.
7. The declining share in GDP is a matter of serious concern because decline and stagnation in agriculture will lead to decline in other spheres of economy.

Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir are the leading producers of these temperate fruits.

જવાબ : Jute is known as the golden fibre.
Jute is mainly grown in West Bengal, especially in the Hooghly Basin because there the geographical conditions favour its growth. These conditions are:

• High temperature required during the time of growth.
• Jute grows well on well-drained fertile soils in the flood plains where soils are renewed every year. Due to its high cost, it is losing market to synthetic fibres and other packing materials particularly to nylon.

જવાબ : Cotton is the fibre crop which is mainly grown in the black soil of the Deccan Plateau region.
(i) Position. India is the 3rd largest producer of cotton in the world.
(ii) Geographical conditions. Cotton requires:

• light rainfall or irrigation.
• 210 frost-free days.
• bright sunshine for its growth.
• black cotton soil which is very good for its growth.
• It is a Kharif crop and requires 6-8 months to mature.

જવાબ : Cotton, jute, hemp and natural silk are the four major fibre crops grown in India. The first three are derived directly from the crops grown in the soil, but silk is obtained from the cocoons of silk worms fed on mulberry leaves.
