The correct answer is: b) Foothill areas.
Pineapple cultivation is a major horticultural activity in the foothill areas of Arunachal Pradesh. The foothill areas are located in the southern part of the state and are characterized by a warm and humid climate. The soil in the foothill areas is also suitable for pineapple cultivation.
The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:
- Option (a), high altitude regions, is incorrect because the high altitude regions of Arunachal Pradesh are located in the north of the state and have a cold and dry climate. Pineapple cultivation is not possible in these regions.

- Option (d), desert plains, is incorrect because the desert plains of Arunachal Pradesh are located in the western part of the state and have a hot and dry climate. Pineapple cultivation is not possible in these regions.
