Answer
A is true but R is false
Reason — Assertion A is true — the agricultural sector is indeed a primary industry. However, Reason R is false because agriculture specifically falls under genetic industries (which are concerned with reproducing and multiplying plants and animals), not extractive industries. The term 'extraction' applies to industries like mining, fishing, oil drilling, and lumbering — not to agriculture. Since R inaccurately describes agriculture as 'extraction' of raw materials, R is false even though A is true.
