Question

Which climatic conditions favour the cultivation of cotton?

Answer 1

1. Temperature: Cotton needs consistently high temperatures ranging from 21°C to 30°C. It also requires a long growing season of at least 200 frost-free days to fully mature.
2. Rainfall: Cotton needs moderate rainfall of about 50 to 75 cm. Adequate rain is essential during the initial growth stage, but after flowering, the crop requires sunny and dry weather.
