Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: a) Agriculture.
Andhra Pradesh is a state in southern India. It is the seventh-largest state in India by area and the sixth-most populous state with over 50 million inhabitants. The state is predominantly rural, with over 70% of the population living in rural areas. The primary occupation in rural Andhra Pradesh is agriculture. Agriculture accounts for over 50% of the state’s GDP and employs over 60% of the workforce. The main crops grown in Andhra Pradesh are rice, cotton, tobacco, and sugarcane. The state also has a significant livestock population, including cattle, buffalo, goats, and sheep.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Manufacturing is not the primary occupation in rural Andhra Pradesh. The state’s manufacturing sector is relatively small, accounting for only about 10% of the state’s GDP.
- Services is not the primary occupation in rural Andhra Pradesh. The state’s services sector is growing rapidly, but it still accounts for only about 30% of the state’s GDP.
- Mining is not the primary occupation in rural Andhra Pradesh. The state has some mineral resources, but mining is not a major industry.
