Consider the following pairs:

Region Well-known for the production of

  1. 1.Kinnaur Areca nut
  2. 2.Mewat Mango
  3. 3.Coromandel Soya bean

Which of the pairs given above is/are correctly matched?

  1. A.1 and 2 only
  2. B.3 only
  3. C.1, 2 and 3
  4. D.None
▶ Answer & Explanation

Correct answer: D. None

Kinnaur is primarily known for apples, not areca nut. The Mewat region in Haryana is not a major hub for mango production; areas like Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra are more prominent. The Coromandel Coast is famous for rice cultivation, and while soybeans are grown in India, the Coromandel region is not particularly renowned for it compared to other soybean-producing areas.
