Cultivation of rice needs high rainfall with __________.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is 3 i.e. High temperature and high humidity

  1. Water availability is critical to rice farming because it facilitates flooding the fields, which is necessary for rice growth.
  2. Because of their ideal environment, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, and Punjab in India have a lot of rainfall and are important rice-producing states. Sufficient rainfall is crucial for the effective germination, development, and harvest of rice in these areas.
  3. In regions with less rainfall, rice can still be grown by irrigation systems, even if rice production requires considerable rainfall along with high temperatures and humidity.
