Question

Swapna is a small farmer. Swapna wants to cultivate cotton. What kind of geographical conditions will be suitable for this? Choose the most appropriate option.

Options

• Laterite soil, Moderate rainfall, Low temperature and Bright sunshine

• Black soil, Light rainfall, High temperature and Bright sunshine

• Laterite soil, Light rainfall, High temperature and Moderate sunshine

• Black soil, High rainfall, Low temperature and Moderate sunshine

Answer 1

Black soil, Light rainfall, High temperature and Bright sunshine

Explanation:

Cotton prefers deep, moisture-retaining black (regur) soils and a hot climate with bright sunshine for good boll and fiber development; too much rain during maturity harms the crop, so relatively light/moderate rainfall is suitable.
