Solution

The correct option is B unorganised
In rural India, the unorganised sector comprises landless agricultural labourers, small and marginal farmers, share croppers, weavers, and carpenters. Nearly 80% of rural households in India are in the small and marginal farmer category. These farmers need to be supported through adequate and timely delivery of seeds, agricultural inputs, credit, storage facilities, and marketing outlets. The government should also introduce some schemes to help artisans in getting better livelihoods.
