Q1. Which one of the following is not included in the agriculture and allied services of the Indian economy?
Explanation
In national income classification, agriculture and allied activities include agriculture proper, livestock, forestry, logging and fishing. Food processing is linked to farm output, but it belongs to manufacturing or agro-based industry rather than agriculture and allied services. Forestry is directly part of the allied sector. Fishery is a standard allied activity. Logging of trees is grouped with forestry and logging in the primary sector, so it is included. Hence food processing is the item outside this category.
