Cotton is an important agricultural crop for what purpose?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To get textile fibre

The direct answer is A: to get textile fibre. Cotton is a crop whose soft fibres surround its seeds. These fibres are separated, cleaned and spun into yarn; the yarn is woven or knitted to make cloth. The reasoning is: cotton plant grows, cotton bolls develop, fibres are collected, and the fibres become thread and textiles. Option A is correct because the main economic use described here is obtaining fibre for the textile industry. Cotton is also commonly called a cash crop because it is grown for sale and income, but that does not change the answer. Option B, making sugar, relates mainly to sugarcane, not cotton. Option C, cooking rice, relates to rice as a food grain; cotton is not a cooking grain. Option D, extracting metal, concerns mining and ores, while cotton is a plant fibre. A useful cue is: cotton gives fibre, sugarcane gives sugar, and rice gives grain.
