Solution

The correct option is C Primitive food gathering

Primitive food Gathering is practiced in northern Canada, northern Eurasia and southern Chile. It is also happening in the Amazon Basin, tropical Africa, Northern fringe of Australia. Shifting Cultivation is popular in the thickly forested areas of Amazon basin and some parts of Southeast Asia and Northeast India. Agriculture, which is in practice in one place by a settled farmer without any rotation, is called sedentary agriculture. The term primitive agriculturists are popular in tropical Africa in contrast to shifting cultivation.

It is clear that Primitive food Gathering is not in practice in India. Thus option C is correct.
