Answer:

here is the answer------

Explanation:

1. Crop is a cultivated plant that is grown on a large scale commercially, especially a cereal, fruit, or vegetable.

2. Various Types of Crops are--

Zaid Crops

Rabi crops

Kharif crops

3. Rabi crops are known as winter crops. They are grown in October or November. The crops are then harvested in spring. These crops require frequent irrigation because these are grown in dry areas. Wheat, gram, barley are some of the Rabi crops grown in India. Examples-- Wheat, Barley, Oats etc.

4. The Kharif cropping season starts with the onset of the Indian subcontinent’s monsoon. Kharif crops are typically sown at the beginning of the first monsoon rains (depends on region to region). Harvesting season begins from the 3rd week of September to October (the exact harvesting dates differ from region to region).  

Unlike Rabi crops, Kharif crops require good rainfall. The output of these crops depends upon the time and amount of rainwater. Paddy, maize, bajra, jowar are a few of the Kharif crops grown in India. Examples-- Rice, Maize, Cotton etc.
