Question

name any two agro based industries in group with their images

Answer 1

A. Cotton Textiles:

Cotton accounts for a major portion of the total fabric produced. The first successful cotton textile mill was set up at Mumbai by Parsi entrepreneurs.

B.Woollen Textiles:

The first woollen textiles mill was set up in 1876 at Kanpur, because Kanpur was the principal depot for the British Indian Army. But the industry did not flourish because of a short winter and long summer in India leading to an inadequate demand. Also, the textiles produced were of poor quality.
