The two major cropping seasons of India are Kharif season and Rabi season which are monsoon dependent. There is a short season between Rabi and Kharif season which is called Zaid(Zayid) Season. The crops grown in these seasons are related to the availability of water and the amount of daylight. Kharif and Rabi Season are dependent on Monsoon rains. The agricultural crops produced in India are seasonal in nature and highly dependent on the monsoons. Zaid is not dependent on Monsoon.
The names Kharif and Rabi are taken from the Arabic language where Kharif means Autumn and Rabi means Spring. The cropping seasons are majorly to point out the right time to sow and raise a particular crop.
