Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

The correct options are
A

The population of India is increasing at a very high rate.

B

India is already extensively cultivated.

India is the second most populous country in the world. It is going to increase further in coming years. India will need to produce a quarter of a billion tonnes of foodgrains every year to feed its population. This can be done by increasing the area under agriculture. But, India is already extensively cultivated. Hence, it is important to improve the production from agriculture and animal husbandry.
