    On the basis of given table in question ,
    Total rice Production = 45 + 48 + 59 + 41 + 37 + 68 + 57 + 38 = 393 lakh tonnes
    Total wheat production = 103 + 86 + 32 + 37 + 22 + 15 + 8 + 28 = 331 lakh tonnes
    ∴ Required ratio = Total rice Production : Total wheat production

    Correct Option: C

    On the basis of given table in question ,
    Total rice Production = 45 + 48 + 59 + 41 + 37 + 68 + 57 + 38 = 393 lakh tonnes
    Total wheat production = 103 + 86 + 32 + 37 + 22 + 15 + 8 + 28 = 331 lakh tonnes
    ∴ Required ratio = Total rice Production : Total wheat production
    ∴ Required ratio = 393 : 331 = 1.2 : 1
