2. Rice requires high temperatures and significant rainfall, which are characteristic of the kharif season.

विकल्प

• (B) contradicts (А).

• (B) is the reason for (A).

• (A) is true but (B) is false.

• (A) and (B) are independent of each other.

Answer 1

(B) is the reason for (A).

Explanation:

The southwest monsoon during the Kharif season provides the high temperatures and heavy rainfall that rice naturally requires to grow. Because these precise tropical climate conditions are available from June to September, farmers primarily cultivate rice during this specific time of the year. Thus, the crop's ecological demands are the direct reason for its seasonal classification.
