Which region of Andhra Pradesh is known as the “Rice Bowl of India”?

Coastal Andhra
Rayalaseema
North Andhra
Telangana border region

The correct answer is: a) Coastal Andhra.

Coastal Andhra is a region in the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It is located on the Bay of Bengal and is home to the state’s capital city, Visakhapatnam. The region is known for its fertile land and its production of rice. In fact, Coastal Andhra is often referred to as the “Rice Bowl of India”.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Rayalaseema is a region in the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It is located inland and is not as fertile as Coastal Andhra.
  • North Andhra is a region in the northern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It is also located inland and is not as fertile as Coastal Andhra.
  • Telangana border region is a region that lies on the border between the Indian states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. It is not as fertile as Coastal Andhra.
