Solution

Dear Student,

Maize is a kharif crop and needs a lot water to grow which are grown in rainy season (from June to September in India). If kharif crops are grown in season of rabi crops, then the plants do not grow properly and both the quantity and quality of crop is poor. Each type of plants require a specific conditions for growth and maturation, so if they are not provided then the plants will not grow.

Regards
