Solution

The correct option is C Black soil
Black cotton soil is also called as regular soil.
Black soils are derivatives of trapped lava. These are found mostly across Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Madhya Pradesh on the Deccan lava plateau and the Malwa Plateau, where there is both moderate rainfall and underlying basaltic rock.
Cotton is grown well in this soil.
