The Agricola Medal is the highest honour awarded by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.\n2. The medal was presented at the FAO headquarters located in Rome, Italy.\nWhich of the statements given above is/are correct?

A Both 1 and 2

B 1 only

C 2 only

D Neither 1 nor 2

Explanation

The Agricola Medal is indeed the highest honour awarded by the FAO, conferred for outstanding contributions to global food security and sustainable agriculture, so statement 1 is correct. The medal was presented to PM Modi on 21 May 2026 at the FAO headquarters in Rome, Italy, by Director General Dr. Qu Dongyu, so statement 2 is also correct. Hence both statements are correct.

Q2Consider the following statements regarding the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO):\n1. The FAO is a specialised agency of the United Nations that leads international efforts to defeat hunger.\n2. The Agricola Medal conferred on PM Modi in 2026 was the first ever award given by the FAO to any Indian.\nWhich of the statements given above is/are correct?

A Both 1 and 2

B 1 only

C 2 only

D Neither 1 nor 2

Explanation

The FAO is a specialised agency of the United Nations that leads international efforts to defeat hunger and improve nutrition and food security, so statement 1 is correct. Statement 2 is incorrect because the Agricola Medal in 2026 was not the first ever FAO award to an Indian; the FAO has recognised India and Indians on several earlier occasions, and the medal honours the Prime Minister for leadership in food security, not as a first-time recognition of India. Hence only statement 1 is correct.
