Paddy is the major crop in which of the following agro-climate zones of Rajasthan ?

  • A.Humid Southern Plain
  • B.Irrigated North Western Plain
  • C.Semi-arid Eastern Plain
  • D.Arid Western Plain

Answer: A

Paddy is a major crop of the Humid Southern Plain.

The Humid Southern Plain agro-climatic zone covers the Banswara and Dungarpur region and neighbouring parts of southern Rajasthan. It receives the highest rainfall in the state, which allows paddy to be grown as a principal kharif crop alongside maize.

The arid western plain is far too dry for paddy, and the semi-arid eastern plain and the irrigated north-western plain are better known for crops such as pearl millet, wheat, mustard and cotton, so the key places paddy in the southern zone.
