Solution

The correct option is B Second
India is the second largest producer of cotton. Cotton has been used in India since the Indus valley civilization where cotton threads were recovered. India produces 6,423 thousand metric tons of cotton every year. The reason for such a huge production is the climate that is most favorable in northern part of the country. A moderate temperature of 25-35 degree Celsius is best suited for cotton cultivation in India. It is processed in huge quantity through modern machines based on the quality requirement.
