SSC CPO 10th Nov 2022 Shift 2
neither I nor II
Correct AnswerBoth I and II
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
- Punjab is known for its high agricultural productivity and predominantly commercial agriculture, especially for rice and wheat. Therefore, rice is not primarily a subsistence crop here.
- Odisha primarily grows rice for local consumption, but in some instances, rice could be marketed commercially. However, the state's rice cultivation is generally not categorized exclusively as commercial farming.
- Option 1, only I, is incorrect because rice in Punjab is not typically considered a subsistence crop.
- Option 2, only II, is incorrect as rice in Odisha isn't primarily seen as a commercial crop.
- Option 3, neither I nor II, is correct as both statements are a mismatch.
- Option 4, both I and II, is incorrect since both statements aren’t accurately matched.
Correct Answer: Option 3 - neither I nor II
