Why was the Kaveri valley agriculturally important for the Cholas?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because of fertile land and irrigation
The Kaveri delta and valley contained fertile alluvial soils and access to river water. Irrigation works and channels supported intensive cultivation, which generated food surplus and revenue for the Chola state. The region was important precisely because of water and fertile land, not because it was a desert, icy mountain zone or riverless area. Thus, option A is correct.
