Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Papaya is the most susceptible fruit crop to water logging.
It is highly susceptible to waterlogging, even 2.5 cm of water standing around the tree for a few hours is likely to kill the plants.
Papaya can grow on a variety of soils, yet the best soil is deep, rich, alluvial soil on the banks and deltas of rivers in India.
The most important requirement for successful papaya cultivation is that the soil should have good drainage and be properly prepared before planting.
