QID 200 - A passage is given with five questions following it Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of thegiven four alternatives

The rural economy is an important segment of the ecosystem and accounts for around 70 percent of employment and 50 percent of GDP with agriculture being themain driver followed by services and manufacturing It is largely unorganized and hence those working in rural India or consuming in this economy are a differentcategory of economic agents driven by different factors The economy is quite complex in so far as the fact that cash dominates in terms of transactions and whilethere has been some intrusion of the use of credit (kisan) and debit cards and ATMs dependence on technology driven payments system is limited This has hencealso become a haven for routing black money both in terms of seeking tax exemptions by channeling funds to convert to legitimate funds But a lot of black moneygets into land and apparent rural activity Now consider some aspects of this economy and the cash conundrum Almost all transactions in the mandis (there are above 7000 organized ones and over doublethe number that is unorganized) are based on cash as it is easy to use The farmers prefer to receive cash and while some do take in cheques there is a sense ofdoubt if the counter party is unknown Hence one reason why electronic mandis is a good idea is that payments can also be made through the electronic mode as alltransactions would be e-enabled The recent demonetization has caused significant distortions as farmers are unable to sell their goods This has happened justwhen we are in middle of the kharif harvest which involves rice soybean cotton maize sugarcane bajra besides fruits and vegetables which are all year throughThe second issue for Indian agriculture is the rabi season which has begun where farmers start sowing their seeds The issue here is less serious as a large part isbacked by credit where the prevalent cash crunch may not matter It would only be at the margin that farmers may be impacted and hence the pain here would besecondary
