Look at this picture of Maahir, who practices organic farming from his rooftop. What is MOST LIKELY to be true about Maahir?

(A) He does not have enough money to buy crops from the market.

(B) He is practising a type of farming that is environmentally-friendly.

(C) He is only growing kharif crops on his rooftop.

(D) He is a farmer by profession.

Answer: 

So,  the correct answer is (B) : He is practising a type of farming that is environmentally-friendly. 

 Explanation 

  • (A): He does not have enough money to buy crops from the market - This cannot be true because organic farming requires a lot of investment. So, this is not correct.
  • (B):He is practising a type of farming that is environmentally friendly -  Most people do organic farming because it is practiced without the use of factory-made chemicals such as fertilizers and pesticides. Consequently, it has no adverse effects on the environment. So, this is correct.
  • (C): He is only growing kharif crops on his rooftop - Growing Kharif crops on the terrace is not possible because it needs standing water to grow the crops. So, this is not correct.
  • (D): He is a farmer by profession - Since he does organic faring on the terrace , he doesnot produce crops in bulk. Thus, he cannot sell his crops so, he is not a farmer.

Thus option (B) is correct
