Environment & Ecology question from JKAS Prelims, 2023 by JKPSC

Which of the following biotic conservative region is NOT included in the Green-Ag project?

Last updated May 13, 2026
Correct Answer: Option D — Sundarbans Landscape
The Green-Ag Project is a specific initiative designed to mainstream biodiversity, climate change, and sustainable land management objectives into the Indian agricultural sector. The project focuses on five specific high-priority landscapes across India, and the Sundarbans is not one of them.

Analysis of the Landscapes
The Green-Ag project covers five landscapes in five different states:

Similipal Landscape (Odisha) - Included.

Chambal Landscape (Madhya Pradesh) - Included.

Corbett-Rajaji Landscape (Uttarakhand) - Included.

Lunglei Landscape (Mizoram) - Included.

Desert Landscape (Rajasthan - specifically the National Desert Park) - Included.

The Sundarbans (West Bengal) is a vital biotic region and a UNESCO World Heritage site, but it is managed under different conservation frameworks (like the National Coastal Mission and various Mangrove conservation projects) rather than the Green-Ag initiative.
