Match the animal breeding centre with the breed. Animal Breeding Centre Breed 1. Dug a. Rathi 2. Chandan b. Tharparkar 3. Nohar c. Malvi

  1. A.1 - c, 2 - b, 3 - a
  2. B.1 - a, 2 - b, 3 - c
  3. C.1 - b, 2 - a, 3 - c
  4. D.1 - a, 2 - c, 3 - b

Correct answer

A. 1 - c, 2 - b, 3 - a

Explanation

The correct answer is A, 1 - c, 2 - b, 3 - a. Rajasthan runs its cattle breeding farms in the home tract of each breed, so the place names and the breeds go together. The farm at Dug lies in Jhalawar in the south east, the tract of the Malvi breed that the state shares with the Malwa plateau, so 1 matches c. The farm at Chandan lies in Jaisalmer in the western desert, where the Tharparkar is bred for milk in heat and scarcity, so 2 matches b. The farm at Nohar lies in Hanumangarh in the canal belt of the north west, which is the home of the Rathi, the leading milch breed of the state, so 3 matches a.

Option B swaps the first and the third pairs, putting Rathi at Dug and Malvi at Nohar, which reverses the geography of the state. Option C puts Tharparkar at Dug and Rathi at Chandan, again breaking the rule that a farm sits in the breed's own tract. Option D keeps only the first pair wrong but also exchanges Tharparkar and Malvi. Fix three lines in memory, Nohar with Rathi, Chandan with Tharparkar and Dug with Malvi, and add Bassi in Chittorgarh and Kumher in Bharatpur for the other farms.
