Which of the following crops has maximum yields in 2012?

Options:

A) Jute

B) Tea

C) Coffee

D) Groundnut

E) Maize

Solution:

Yields of jute in 2012 = \(\cfrac{28}{21}\) = 1.33 tonnes/hectare

Yields of tea in 2012 = \(\cfrac{60}{42}\) = 1.42 tonnes/hectare

Yields of coffee in 2012 = \(\cfrac{56}{44}\) = 1.27 tonnes/hectare

Yields of groundnut in 2012 = \(\cfrac{115}{69 }\) = 1.67 tonnes/hectare

Yields of maize in 2012 = \(\cfrac{72}{56 }\) = 1.28 tonnes/hectare

∴ Groundnut has the maximum yields among the given crops.
