Solution

The correct option is B Crotalaria juncea
Crotalaria juncea, known as sunn or sunn hemp, is a tropical Asian plant of the legume family (Fabaceae). It is generally considered to have originated in India. It is now widely grown throughout the tropics and subtropics as a source of green manure, fodder and lignified fibre obtained from its stem. Sunn hemp is also being looked at as a possible bio-fuel. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
