b small scale of farm
c commercial farming
d traditional methods​

Answer 1

Answer:

traditional methods is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

option d is not a reason for the backwardness of Indian agriculture.

Explanation:

• Small land holdings. The land ceiling act further adds to this. even these land holdings are not consolidated. An average holding at one place (a man may hold 3 acres, but his holding in one place is less than 1/3rd of an acre, so he may have 10 holdings at different places) is approx. 1/3rd of an acre. This precludes the use of mechanized means.
• Poor R&D in agriculture. The achievement of Indian agricultural universities does not justify the grant they are receiving.
• Poor infrastructure. We have not invested in creating dams for water storage for agriculture and new canals. In the villages, the ponds which were existing and acted as aquifers have been encroached on and leveled. Water channels, in the villages, have also been encroached on

• commercial farming. Commercial farming is a way wherein the vegetation and farm animals are raised to promote merchandise so one can make money.
