Answer:

The incorrect type of crop is found to be A. Paddy- Aus, Aman and Boro

Explanation:

  • When one kind of plant species is cultivated on a large scale in a vast field, it is called a crop. For example, the crop of paddy means that only paddy is grown in the field at one time.
  • A large variety of crops are grown to meet the requirements of the growing population.
  • Major food crops include rice, wheat, maize, millets, pulses etc.

Option B) is correct.

  • Ragi, Bajra and Jowar are the important, cereal or coarse grains grown in India. These are belonging to the monocot family Poaceae and are together included in the Millet category.

Option C) is correct.

  • Corn and Sweet corn are colourful varieties of Maize grown in India. It is used both as food and fodder. This is grown in both Kharif and rabi seasons.

Option D) is correct.

  • Pulses are the major sources of protein in a vegetarian diet. Important varieties of Masur, Peas and Tur​ (Arhar) etc. are grown in India.  

Option A) is incorrect.

  • Rice is a staple food for the overwhelming majority of the population in India. It is a seasonal crop means it can grow in Kharif as well as Rabi season.
  • In favourable climatic conditions, in West Bengal and Bangladesh, farmers grow three rice crops called ‘aus’, ‘aman’ and ‘boro’ grown in one agricultural year.
  • The variety of rice sown between the rainy season and harvested in winter is "Aman". The variety of rice sown in summer along with pre- monsoonal falls and harvested in autumn is "Aus". "Boro" variety of rice sown in winter and harvested in summer, this is called "spring rice".
  • Aus, Aman and Boro are not varieties, these are 3 types of paddy that are season-wise names.

Therefore, option A. is the correct answer.
