Normal practice, or a Simulated test

Both use the same questions. Normal practice is untimed and needs no account: choose an option and the answer and solution appear at once. The Simulated test is the real computer-based format, with one 30-minute clock, a question palette and full screen, and your score, the key and the solutions arrive when you submit.

FAQs about Agriculture and Crops – GK Quiz with Answers – Level 2

What are Aus, Aman and Boro?
They are the three paddy crops grown in a year in states such as Assam, West Bengal and Odisha. Each is grown in a different season.
What was the Green Revolution in India?
The Green Revolution raised farm output, mainly of wheat, using high yielding variety seeds, chemical fertilisers and assured irrigation. Its effect was strongest in Punjab and Haryana.
What is the difference between Bhoodan and Gramdan?
In Bhoodan, landowners donated land to the landless. In Gramdan, some zamindars offered whole villages for distribution. Both were led by Vinoba Bhave.
What is plantation agriculture?
Plantation agriculture is commercial farming in which a single crop such as tea, coffee or rubber is grown on a large estate. It is called an interface of agriculture and industry because it needs capital, labour and processing.
