Solution

The two most important food crops of India are Rice and Wheat.

  1. Rice: It is primarily grown during the Kharif season (summer monsoon) as it is a water-intensive crop that requires high temperatures and abundant rainfall.
  2. Wheat: It is cultivated during the Rabi season (winter) as it requires a cool growing season and bright sunshine at the time of ripening.
