Answer:
Agriculture is the science, which mainly deals with the diverse processes or the methods used for the cultivating different varieties of plants and livestock farming or animal husbandry on the basis of human requirements.
When plants of the same variety are cultivated on a large scale, they are called crops. The crops are divided on the basis of the seasons in which they grow:
Kharif Crops-These crops are sown in the early monsoon season, which generally varies by crop and region of cultivation. In India, Kharif crops are sown at the beginning of the rainy season, between the month of June and July. These crops are harvested at the end of monsoon season, between the month of September and October. Paddy is the main Kharif crop.
Rabi Crops- These crops are sown during winter and after the monsoon, which is between the month of October and November. In India, Rabi crops are harvested during the spring between the month of March and April. Wheat is the main Rabi crop.
