Which among the following is NOT a horticulture crop?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Cereal crops
Horticulture is the growing of garden crops: fruits, vegetables, flowers, spices, plantation crops, and medicinal and aromatic plants. These are grown intensively on small plots and give a high value per hectare.
Cereal crops such as rice, wheat and maize are field crops (agronomic crops), grown over large areas for grain, so they are not horticulture crops.
