Northern plains are important for indian economy . Why?
- Northern plains are the most densely populated areas of India
- It covers an area of about 7 lakh square kilometres
- Alluvial deposits in plains makes the land very fertile which is the reason that they are most suitable for growing crops.
- The Ganga, the Indus and the Brahmaputra along with their branches provide continuous water supply in these regions.
- The fertile alluvial soil together with better climate and ample water make agriculture a fruitful occupation in the northern plains. Hence the northern plains are called the ‘granaries of the country’.
- Since agriculture is the backbone of the country and the northern plains contribute a major portion of yields, they are very important for the growth of the Indian economy.
