Officials believe that the loss in production of the kharif crops can be recovered in the output of the rabi (winter sown) crops so that the country can achieve its food-grain production target of 291 million tons in the crop year 2019-20 (July-June). They are hopeful that good rains in July-August will help the soil retain moisture for a longer period, helping winter sown crops such as wheat and pulses during the November-February period. Which of the following statements can be inferred from the given passage? Officials declared that the food-grain production target will be met due to good rains. Officials want the food-grain production target to be met by the November-February period. Officials feel that the food-grain production target cannot be met due to floods. Officials hope that the food-grain production target will be met due to a good rabi produce. ‘The difference between the sum of the first 2n natural numbers and the sum of the first n odd natural numbers is Q6 - Q10 carry two marks each.
