Which of the following is NOT a cropping season in India?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Fang.

 

India has three main cropping seasons:

  1. Kharif: Sown with the onset of the monsoon (June–July) and harvested in September–October; crops include rice, maize, and cotton.

  2. Rabi: Sown in winter (October–December) and harvested in spring (March–April); crops include wheat, barley, and mustard.

  3. Zaid: Sown in the summer months (March–June) between Rabi and Kharif; crops include watermelon, cucumber, and vegetables.

Fang is not a recognised cropping season in India; it is unrelated to Indian agriculture.
