If wheat is sown in the kharif season, what would happen? Discuss.
Approach Solution - 1
Wheat is a rabi crop, hence it requires cold climatic conditions to be grown properly. If it is sown in the kharif season, it will not grow or may get destroyed due to excessive rains in the kharif season.
Approach Solution -2
Kharif crops:
Kharif crops, also known as monsoon or fall crops, are grown in India during the monsoon season, from June to November.
If wheat is grown in the Kharif season:
Wheat is a Rabi crop, which needs warm temperatures for seed germination and a cold climate for crop growth. The Kharif season, however, has hot or mild weather with heavy rainfall.
Wheat sown during the Kharif season will not grow well due to the unsuitable temperatures and excess rainfall. Additionally, it will not bloom because it needs longer daylight hours, which are not available during the Kharif season.
