Question Description
Directions: Read the passage and answer the question that follows.If I say that Indian agriculture has the potential to double or even triple its output in the next 15-20 years, many people will laugh it away. But the reality is that many countries have done it and we can do it.India, China and Israel started off their new political journey in late 1940s, but today China's per capita income in dollar terms is almost five times that of India, and Israel's almost 20 times higher than India. Agriculture contributes just 8 per cent of overall GDP in China compared to about 17 per cent in India, and only 1 per cent in Israel. Over a period of time, people have moved out of agriculture. About 26 per cent of China's workforce is in agriculture, in Israel this is less than 1 percent while India is still stuck with 42 per cent of its workforce in agriculture.China, as many would know, started off its economic reforms in 1978 by taking up agriculture first. It dismantled its commune system of land holdings and liberated agri-markets that allowed farmers to get much higher prices for their produce. As a result, in 1978-84, farmers' incomes in China increased by almost 14 per cent per annum, more than doubling in six years.In India, the 1991 reforms bypassed agriculture. There was only some indirect effect when tariffs on manufactured goods were reduced. But Indian agri-food policies remained more consumer-oriented with a view to "protect the poor". In the process, they never allowed farmers to enjoy the best prices they could get from free markets within India or abroad. The net result of all this was farmers' incomes remained low and so did those of landless agri-labourers.India can learn from other countries. Israel offers something unique: How to turn a desert into cultivating high-value crops for exports (citrus fruits, dates, olives) by recycling urban waste water for agriculture, by de-salinisation of sea waters. Water accounting in Israel is something exemplary.Q. Which of the following, if true, would strengthen the author's arguments in the passage?a)The groundwater level in India has declined by 61 per cent between 2007 and 2017, and 89% of this is used for irrigation, according to the census.b)Export controls, stocking limits on traders, movement restrictions, etc are all hardly experienced in Indian agriculture.c)Both A and Bd)Neither A nor BCorrect answer is option 'A'.
