Correct Answer: C. PM-KUSUM
Introduction
The AgriVoltaics World Conference on 21 October focused on producing energy while retaining agricultural use of land. Its exam value lies in understanding the land-use model and the scheme proposed to support it.
Explanation
Correct answer: C — PM-KUSUM. PM-KUSUM is the scheme connected to the proposed agrivoltaic expansion. The announcement concerned an intended programme under a forthcoming phase, so it should not be interpreted as proof that every proposed farm installation was already operating. Match the energy-and-agriculture context to the scheme rather than choosing another familiar flagship programme. Agrivoltaics integrates solar panels with continuing crop cultivation. The conference announcement linked a proposed expansion of this approach to the next phase of PM-KUSUM. Suitable designs must consider farming operations; simply replacing all crops with a solar plant does not express the dual-use concept. Official source: Press Information Bureau
