Question

Which one of the following pairs is correctly matched with its major producing state?

• A. Ragi – Bihar
• B. Cotton – Kerala
• C. Tea – Tripura
• D. Coffee – Assam

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Tea – Tripura

• Correct Answer Option C: Tea – Tripura

• Option A: Ragi – Bihar. This is incorrect. Ragi (finger millet) is primarily cultivated in Karnataka, which is the largest producer, followed by Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh. Bihar is not a major producer of ragi.

• Option B: Cotton – Kerala
  This is incorrect. Kerala's climate and terrain are not suitable for cotton cultivation. The major cotton-producing states in India are Gujarat, Maharashtra, Telangana, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh.

• Option C: Tea – Tripura. This is correct. Tripura is indeed one of the major tea-producing states in India. While Assam and West Bengal are the largest producers, Tripura ranks among the top tea-producing states in the northeastern region of India.

• Option D: Coffee – Assam. This is incorrect. While Assam is famous for tea production, it is not a major coffee producer. The main coffee-producing states in India are Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu, with Karnataka being the largest producer.
