Question

Identify the crop that is grown in the Rabi cropping season.

Options

• Sugarcane

• Rice

• Mustard

• Cotton

Answer 1

Mustard

Explanation:

Mustard is a Rabi (winter) crop sown in October and November, and harvested in March and April; it prefers cool temperatures (about 10 – 20° C) and alluvial soils, and is often grown with wheat, gram, or barley. This makes mustard the correct choice among the options.
