Recently, which of the following crop was accorded with Geographical Indication (GI) Tag ?

  • A.Jowar of Bijapur
  • B.Tur dal of Kalaburagi
  • C.Cotton of Raichur
  • D.Wheat of Bidar

Answer: B

The crop given the GI tag was Tur dal of Kalaburagi.

Kalaburagi tur dal (pigeon pea) received a Geographical Indication tag in 2019. The district, in the Kalyana Karnataka region, is known as the 'tur bowl' of the state, and its dal is valued for its taste, quick cooking and long shelf life, which are attributed to the region's black soils.

Jowar of Bijapur, cotton of Raichur and wheat of Bidar are important crops of north Karnataka, but none of them was the crop that received the GI tag.
