Mild winters and suitable temperature in summer and the rainy season enable this region to grow a variety of Rabi-crops such as Wheat, gram, barley, some oilseeds, etc. in winter and a variety of Kharif crops like rice, maize, bajra, jowar, cotton, jute, some pulses and oilseeds, etc. in the rainy season.
3. For crops like sugar cane, wheat, etc. there are irrigation facilities through canals and tube-wells.
