Given below are two statements, one labelled as Assertion (A) and the other labelled as **Reason (R):** Assertion (A):** Disguised unemployment is highly prevalent in the agricultural sector of developing economies like India. **Reason (R):** The marginal productivity of labor in these agricultural setups is often zero or negative due to overcrowding on limited land. In the context of the above statements, which of the following is correct?

Options:

• A: Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
• B: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
• C: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
• D: Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.
