B Correct answer
Explanation

The statement claims 1-3 litres per kilo of rice, but this is grossly incorrect. According to the FAO and Water Footprint Network, rice production requires 2,500-5,000 litres of water per kilogram when accounting for paddy irrigation, making the statement false by a huge margin.
