Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Paspalum scrobiculatum, commonly called Kodo millet, is an annual grain that is grown primarily in Nepal. Millets fall in the category of coarse millet, hence it is also a very hard and coarse crop that is drought tolerant and can survive on marginal soils also. Kodo millet has a large potential to provide nourishing food to subsistence farmers.
