Detailed Solution

(A): This statement is incorrect as agriculture falls under the unorganised sector and not the organised sector. It is an activity of the unorganised sector as there are no fixed working hours, no provident fund or pension, employment is not secure, and jobs are irregular.
(R): This statement is true as people working in the agricultural sector are employed only during the harvesting and sowing season. It is the reason that there is widespread underemployment in rural areas. Thus, (R) is correct, but (A) is not.
