Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

In pearl millet (bajra), hybrid varieties are usually denoted by codes like HHB, RHB, or other hybrid series, developed under ICAR and state agricultural universities.

  • HHB series (like HHB 67) → Hybrid variety developed for high yield.

  • RHB series (like RHB 127) → Rajasthan Hybrid Bajra varieties.

  • PEHM 11 → Also a hybrid variety released for cultivation.

However, RHB 121 is not recognized as a standard hybrid variety recommended under ICAR for Rajasthan, making it the incorrect option in this context.

Thus, the answer is RHB 121.
