Detailed Solution

The given statement is false. Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Haryana produced the most bajra in 2011-12. Jowar, bajra, and ragi are the three most important millets. Even though they are classified as coarse grains, they are quite nutritious. Ragi, for example, is abundant in roughage, iron, calcium, and other micronutrients. Jowar is the third-most important food crop in terms of area and yield. It is a rain-fed crop mostly cultivated in wet locations and requires little irrigation. Bajra grows well in both sandy and shallow black soil. Red, black, sandy, loamy, and shallow black soils all support the growth of ragi.
Thus the correct statement would be The main producers of Bajra crops are Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Haryana.
