define kharif and rabi crops with example
Answers
Answer:
Kharif crops, which are also known as monsoon crops, are the crops which are grown during the monsoon or rainy season (June to October). Their seeds are sown at the beginning of the monsoon season and the crops are harvested at the end of the monsoon season.
Kharif crops depend on the rainfall patterns. The timing and quantity of rainwater are the two important factors that decide the output of Kharif crops. The main Kharif crops grown in India include paddy, maize, jowar, bajra, cotton, sugarcane, groundnut, pulses etc.
Rabi crops, which are also known as winter crops, are the crops that are grown in the winter season (October or November). Their seeds are sown at the beginning of the winter season and crop is harvest at the end of the winter season or in the spring season.
The rabi crops are cultivated in the dry season so timely irrigation is required to grow these crops. Some of the main rabi crops of India include wheat, gram, oat, barley, potato, and seeds like mustard, linseed, sunflower, coriander, cumin, etc.
