Rabi crops are planted during _________.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. October-November.

  • Rabi crops are typically sown during the winter season, specifically from late October to December, and are harvested in the spring.
  • These crops include wheat, barley, peas, chickpeas, and mustard, among others.
  • Unlike Kharif crops, which are planted during the monsoon season and harvested in autumn, Rabi crops rely on irrigation or residual moisture from the monsoon rains.
  • They play a crucial role in ensuring food security and stabilizing agricultural production in regions with a winter cropping season.
