Solution

The correct option is C Both statements are true and statement 2 is the correct explanation for statement 1.
The physical extent of land on which crops are sown and harvested is known as net area sown. Gulbarga district in North Karnataka has the largest area under cultivable land in the state. Bengaluru district stands at the bottom of the list because of urbanisation. Due to urbanisation, land used for developmental purposes (residential complexes, road constructions and so on) are shooting up, especially in Bengaluru urban district.
