The correct answer is D. The agriculture economy of the State is characterized by plantation farming.
Chhattisgarh is a predominantly agricultural state. More than 75% of its population lives in villages and the agriculture here depends largely on rainfall. The main crops grown in Chhattisgarh are rice, wheat, maize, pulses, oilseeds, sugarcane, and cotton. The state also has a significant livestock population.
Plantation farming is a type of agriculture in which large areas of land are devoted to the cultivation of a single crop. This type of farming is often used to produce cash crops, such as tea, coffee, and rubber. Plantation farming is not common in Chhattisgarh. The state’s agriculture economy is more diversified, with a focus on food crops.
