Answer 2

(1) The crops sown in rainy season - Kharif crops

(2) The crops sown in winter season - Rabi crops

• The crops that are grown during the monsoon or rainy season are referred to as kharif crops or monsoon crops (June to October).
• Their crops are harvested at the end of the monsoon season after the seeds are sown at the start of the season.
• Crops grown in Kharif depend on rainfall patterns. The output of Kharif crops is largely determined by the timing and amount of rainfall. Paddy, maize, jowar, bajra, cotton, sugarcane, groundnuts, pulses, and others are some of the key Kharif crops farmed in India.
• The crops that are grown during the winter are referred to as rabi crops or winter crops (October or November). Their crop is harvested at the conclusion of the winter season or in the spring after the seeds are sown at the start of the winter season.
• Rabi crops must be irrigated on time because they are grown during the dry season. Wheat, gramme, oat, barley, potatoes, and seeds including mustard, linseed, sunflower, coriander, and cumin are a few of India's major rabi crops.

Hence, Kharif crops are sown in rainy season and rabi crops in winter season.
