Solution

The correct option is B Desert Soil
As Rajasthan is mostly covered by desert, it has sandy soil to the most extent. Soil that has very less capacity to hold water is sandy soil. Sandy soils have low moisture storage. High evaporation & low capacity limit the availability of rain water for plant use.
