Detailed Solution

The above statement is incorrect. Rice is a subsistence crop in Odisha and a commercial crop in Haryana and Punjab because the diet of the people of Odisha is largely based on rice than any other crop. On the other hand, Haryana and Punjab depend on Wheat and Maize. This makes rice a subsistence crop in Odisha and a commercial crop in Haryana and Punjab. West Bengal, Odisha, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Maharashtra, Punjab and Haryana are the states where rice is produced in the most quantity. The three types of rice are Aus, Aman and Boro.
The correct statement would be that rice is a subsistence crop in Odisha and a commercial crop in Haryana and Punjab.
