• B. Production, Assembling, Processing, Grading
• C. Assembling, Processing, Packaging, Transportation
• D. Processing, Packaging, Grading, Distribution

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Understanding Agricultural Marketing System:
- The correct components of an agricultural marketing system typically include assembling, storage, processing, grading, packaging, transportation, and distribution. Evaluating the Options:
- (A), (C), and (D) correctly represent key functions of agricultural marketing.
- (B) is incorrect because "Production" is not a component of the marketing system; it belongs to the production process.
Conclusion: Since production is not a part of agricultural marketing, the incorrect combination is \( \mathbf{(B)} \).
