Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: E
Statements I, II and III give direct agricultural reasons for wheat growers to be happy: rain supports crop growth, lower temperature suits wheat, and soil moisture/groundwater conditions improve.
Statement IV overgeneralizes that both states are completely dependent on farming, which is not given in the statement.
Therefore only I, II and III are implicit.
