It is the largest state in India by area and the third most populous state. The economy of Assam is primarily based on agriculture. The main crops grown in Assam are rice, tea, jute, and oilseeds. The state also has a significant forest cover.<\/p>\n<p>According to the 2011 census, the percentage of Assam&#8217;s population engaged in agriculture was 50.6%. This is higher than the national average of 46.7%. The high percentage of people engaged in agriculture in Assam is due to the fact that the state has a large rural population and a relatively underdeveloped economy.<\/p>\n<p>Option (a) 25% is incorrect because the percentage of Assam&#8217;s population engaged in agriculture is actually higher than 25%.<\/p>\n<p>Option (c) 70% is incorrect because the percentage of Assam&#8217;s population engaged in agriculture is actually lower than 70%.<\/p>\n<p>Option (d) 90% is incorrect because the percentage of Assam&#8217;s population engaged in agriculture is actually lower than 90%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;25%&#8221;
