B Correct answer
Explanation

Berseem (Egyptian clover) is a fast-growing, high-protein fodder crop extensively grown to feed livestock. It belongs to the legume family and fixes atmospheric nitrogen, improving soil fertility. Linseed, green gram, and mustard are primarily cash crops cultivated for their seeds and oil, not as animal fodder.
