Correct Answer: (1)


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

"Although" should be replaced with "in spite of" to convey the intended meaning that the production of food grains decreased even though the rains were good. "In spite of" is the correct phrase to be used here instead of "although" to make the sentence grammatically correct.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: " In spite of good rains the production of food grains fell."
