Answer:

The answer is B Wheat

India is the world's largest producer of milk, pulses and jute, and ranks as the second largest producer of rice, wheat, sugarcane, groundnut, vegetables, fruit and cotton. It is also one of the leading producers of spices, fish, poultry, livestock and plantation crops.

India is now among the top 10 agricultural produce exporters in the world. It has clocked in at the No. 9 position, selling significant volumes of rice, cotton, soya beans and meat, according to World Trade Organization (WTO) data. Others in the list include Brazil, the European Union, New Zealand, China, the U.S., Mexico, and others.

India is the largest producer of pulses in the world, and the biggest milk producer. It is also one of the largest producers of rice, wheat, sugarcane, cotton, and groundnuts, as well as the second-largest fruit and vegetable producer.

There are many reasons to rejoice in this news of India’s rise among agricultural exporters. My generation of Indians were taught—through formal and informal ways—that the best way to progress in life was to leave the farm, the hinterland, the rural community and move to metropolises. The city was where the action was, and where the good life could be attained.

One part of the reason for such logic was economic—farms grew ever smaller as the land splintered among generations, and the yield, and productivity fell, and then abysmally fell some more. This did not happen in every part of India, but it was a wide enough phenomenon that it became a cliché. The second reason was cultural. Babasaheb Ambedkar had once countered the Gandhian vision of idyllic, self-sufficient farm life by describing the Indian village as the pit of superstition, prejudice, and every kind of social malice. He had a point. Freedom, especially freedom from draconian orthodoxy, was to be found in the relative anonymity of the big city. But things have steadily changed. As big city life in India grows ever more stressful, polluted, and expensive, there has been a public mood shift towards a healthier, more organic lifestyle. Simultaneously, an organic farming movement has spread rapidly around the country and India today has probably more organic farmers than anywhere in the world.
