B Correct answer
Explanation

The statement that India has been a big importer of food grains especially since the 1990s is INCORRECT. India actually became self-sufficient in food grains after the Green Revolution and has been a net EXPORTER of food grains since the 1990s, not a big importer. The other statements are correct - special schemes have been started to promote agro-products, and the high yielding varieties programme has indeed improved production and productivity.
