\nThe correct answer is D) Brazil \u2013 India \u2013 China. Per capita availability of arable land is calculated by dividing the total arable land area by the total population. Using approximate figures (as of recent years, trends were similar earlier):
\n– Brazil: Large land area, relatively smaller population compared to India and China. High per capita arable land.
\n– India: Significant arable land area, but very high population. Moderate per capita arable land.
\n– China: Significant arable land area, but also very high population (similar to India’s), and slightly less arable land area than India. Low per capita arable land compared to India and Brazil.<\/p>\nTherefore, the descending order of per capita availability of arable land is Brazil > India > China.
\n<\/section>\n\n– Per capita arable land = Arable land area \/ Population.
\n– Brazil has a large land area and lower population density compared to India and China.
\n– India and China have very large populations, which significantly reduces their per capita figures despite having large absolute areas of arable land.
