There has been a gradual shift from the cultivation of food crops to the cultivation of fruits, vegetables, oil seeds, and industrial crops. This has led to the reduction in net sown area under cereals and pulses. With the growing population of India, the declining food production puts a big question mark on the country’s future food security. The competition for land between non-agricultural uses such as housing etc. and agriculture has resulted in a reduction in the net sown area. The productivity of land has started showing a declining trend. Fertilizers, pesticides, and insecticides, which once showed dramatic results, are now being held responsible for degrading the soils. Periodic scarcity of water has led to a reduction in the area under irrigation. Inefficient water management has led to water logging and salinity.

According to the information given above, there has been a reduction in the net sown area under cereals and pulses. Identify the reason.

Need of huge labor in cultivating cereals and pulses

Availability of more profits from commercial crops

Lack of markets to sell cereals and pulses

Earn more income from the non-agricultural sector
