crop production is based on flowering of plant . in wheat plants flowering takes place only in short nights i.e 12 1/2 hours . as long as the nights are longer the wheat plant does not flower.... if wheat is sown in kharif season. foe example in july, it takes 8-10 weeks for growing. after that flowering will take place. by that time it would be october.then the night duration extends more than 12 1/2 hours. so the flowering does not take properly at that time seed formation is effected due ti low temperature. so seed production will be low.......

If wheat is sown in the Kharif season (from June to October), then the whole crop might get destroyed because of many factors such as lack of optimum temperature, adaptability, availability of pests, etc. Kharif season includes the rainy season, which is not favourable for the growth of wheat crop.
