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:
