Solution

The correct option is B Employ surplus labour in agriculture
Industries provide critical inputs to agriculture and service sectors. For example, agriculture depends on industries for fertilisers, tractors, and other equipment. Services such as banking, transport, and trade depend on industries for industrial goods. Land is a limited factor and hence, cannot employ more people than required. The surplus labour is absorbed by the industries.
