Why are Himalayan rivers important for agriculture?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They help in irrigation and fertile soil

Direct answer: A, irrigation and fertile soil. Himalayan rivers usually have water from snowmelt, glaciers and monsoon rain. They carry fine alluvium and spread it over plains during floods. Farmers can use their water in canals, wells and fields, while alluvial soil is generally productive. A is correct. B is wrong because rivers do not always freeze fields. C is wrong because rivers do not stop rainfall; rainfall feeds them. D is wrong because although erosion occurs in places, rivers do not remove all soil and their deposits can improve farmland. Memory cue: river water plus alluvium supports agriculture.
