Answers
Answer:
it means they will not survive that much
Explanation:
Rice grows best in areas of warm, humid climate; rice requires temperatures between 20°C and 35°C and a well-distributed rainfall of about 100 cm or irrigation facilities.
Fertile soil. Delta and valley soils are the most suitable. Soils with higher clay content are preferred for its cultivation due to their better moisture retention capacitie.
. Wheat: , Higher temperature of about 30 to 35°C has detrimental effect on the crop growth. The daily day time temperature around 26°C and night time temperature around 12°C are most favourable for the grain formation. Wheat crop can withstand low temperature of -8 to 10°C in the spring during early period of its vegetative growth.
It requires 350-400mm of well distributed rainfall during the life cycle of the crop. Major wheat growing states are Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Rajasthan, Bihar and Haryana..
