Correct Answer:
B. Abi
This question focuses on land irrigated by specific natural or semi-natural water bodies other than canals or direct rainfall.
- Abi (Option B) is the correct answer. This term is used for land that receives irrigation from sources like tanks, jhils (lakes), streams, or springs. It signifies land that is artificially or naturally irrigated by these specific water bodies.
- Barani (Option A) refers to rain-fed land, which is unirrigated by these sources, making it incorrect.
- Nehri (Option C) refers to land irrigated specifically by canals, not tanks, jhils, or springs, thus it is also incorrect.
Accurate classification helps in understanding the water management practices and agricultural productivity of different regions.
