Explanation:

Delhi Sultans introduced many reforms in Agriculture. They encouraged farmers to cultivate superior crop like wheat instead of barley.
Sultans like Muhammad bin Tughlaq and Firoz Tughlaq took efforts to enhance agricultural production by providing irrigation facilities and by providing ‘takkavi loans’.
Muhammad bin Tughlaq also created a separate Agricultural department, ‘diwan-i-kohi’.
