SSC MTS 2024 PYQ — Question 45

The correct answer is  option 3 i.e. Wheat.

A common crop grown in the Rabi season in India is wheat. The Rabi season refers to the winter cropping season, typically sown in October-November and harvested in March-April. Other important Rabi crops include barley, mustard, peas, gram (chickpeas), and lentils. These crops require cooler temperatures to grow and depend mainly on the residual moisture in the soil, often supplemented by irrigation. The Rabi crops play a crucial role in India’s food security and agricultural economy, especially in northern and central parts of the country where winter conditions are favorable for their cultivation.
