Question

In India, during the last decade the total cultivated land for which one of the following crops has remained more or less stagnant?

Accepted Answer

The correct answer is pulses. According to data from the Ministry of Agriculture and various Economic Surveys over the last decade, the area under cultivation for rice, oilseeds, and sugarcane has shown noticeable fluctuations or steady increases. In contrast, the total area dedicated to pulses remained relatively stagnant, hovering around 22 to 25 million hectares for most of the decade. While there was a slight uptick in pulse production toward the end of the period due to government incentives, the overall cultivated area has not seen the significant growth or expansion observed in major food grains or commercial crops.
