C Correct answer
Explanation

Groundnut (peanut) is indeed valued for both its oil content (approximately 45-50% oil) and its high protein content (approximately 25-30%). It serves dual purposes as both an oilseed crop and a protein source. Coconut is primarily valued for oil, areca nut is not typically used for oil extraction, and hazelnut is not commonly grown as an oilseed crop.
