Answer 1

The correct answer is Kharif

Key Points

Kharif crops are sown during the monsoon season (June to September).
Rice is a major Kharif crop, widely grown in regions with high rainfall.
These crops require warm temperatures and plenty of water for proper growth.
Harvesting of Kharif crops typically occurs in the autumn season (September to October).

Additional Information

Rabi: Rabi crops are sown in winter (October to December) and harvested in spring (March to May). Examples include wheat, barley, and mustard. These crops depend on irrigation rather than monsoon rains.
Zaid: Zaid crops are grown between the Rabi and Kharif seasons, during the summer months (March to June). Examples include watermelon, cucumber, and muskmelon.
