Explanation:

Wheat and Barley were the first crop to be grown in the region of Sulaiman and Kirthar hills to the northwest of India about 8000 years ago.People also began rearing animals like sheep, goat, and cattle, and lived in villages there. The Garo hills to the north-east and the Vindhyas in central India were some of the areas where agriculture developed. There is no such reference for river Kaveri. The places where rice was first grown are to the north of the Vindhyas.
