Explanation:
a. In India, land resources are mainly divided into agricultural land, forest land, pastureland and waste land. Waste land includes mountainous, arid, and desert areas, as well as land used in non-farm operations such as rural, road and industrial areas. Recent data show that approximately 54 percent of the total area is cultivable or fallow, 22.5 percent is forested and 3.45 percent for pasture. The majority is farmland with remnants of extensive planting.
b. Red soil forms in a temperate, warm, and moist climate under mixed/deciduous forest. It is rich in potash however lacks humus, nitrogen, and phosphate content. The red soil is found Tamil Nadu, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, parts of Karnataka, Odisha, and south-east Maharashtra
c. Though fossil fuels are continuously formed by natural processes, they are commonly called non-renewable resources since they require millions of years to form and existing viable reserves are depleting much more rapidly than the generation of new ones.
