Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
According to the Agricultural Statistics of Rajasthan 2022–23, the Gross Cropped Area was the largest land use category in Rajasthan.
Gross Cropped Area refers to the total area sown once or more than once during an agricultural year. Since Rajasthan has a large agricultural base, this category occupies the maximum land area compared to forests, irrigated area, or current fallow land.
Other categories like forest area and irrigated area cover comparatively smaller portions of land.
Therefore, the correct answer is Gross Cropped Area.
