(b) High cost of land and better opportunities abroad
(c) Government ban on domestic farming
(d) Shortage of irrigation in India
Answer: (b)
Explanation: Farmers are exploring overseas farming mainly due to high land costs in India. Countries like Tanzania offer cheaper land, fertile soil, and export access through ports. This allows larger-scale farming and higher profits. However, such investments carry risks like legal disputes and unfamiliar regulations. Therefore, proper agreements and safeguards are necessary. It reflects a shift toward globalised agriculture, where farmers seek better economic viability beyond domestic limitations.
