B
Arable land is very minimal in the United States.
C
Most urban residents of the US are not engaged in agriculture.
D
The United States, India, and China are the world’s three leading agricultural producers.

Explanation

The false statement is “Arable land is very minimal in the United States.” The United States has a large amount of arable land and extensive agricultural production, so arable land is not very minimal. The other statements are generally true: fewer than 2% of the U.S. population works in agriculture, most urban residents do not, and the United States, India, and China are among the world’s leading agricultural producers.
