Question

Give a geographical reason for the following:

The Rann of Kutch is not cultivated.

Answer 1

The Rann of Kutch is not cultivated because:

1. Fertile soil is not found.
2. The area is below sea level and is inundated during high tides.

Answer 2

The Rann of Kutch is not cultivated because it is a salt marsh area that remains flooded or waterlogged for most of the year, making the soil saline and unsuitable for agriculture. The region is also exposed to marine inundation and has a composition of dark silt and salt marshes, which further prevents cultivation.
