    D Cotton Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Wheat is a rabi crop, sown in winter (October-December) and harvested in spring (March-May). Kharif crops like paddy (rice), soybean, and cotton are grown during the monsoon season (June-October) and harvested around September-November. Kharif crops require high rainfall (750-1500 mm) and warm temperatures (25-35°C), while rabi crops like wheat need cooler temperatures (10-25°C) and moderate rainfall (50-100 mm). India is the second-largest wheat producer globally after China, with major production in Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, and Rajasthan.
