Open in App
Solution
Dear student,
The Kharif crop is the autumn harvest (also known as the summer or monsoon crop). Kharif crops are usually sown with the beginning of the first rains in July, during the south-west monsoon season. The term Kharif means autumn. Rabi is a summer crop, while kharif is a rainy season crop. The Rabi season crop is of a relatively shorter duration time and hence more fertilizers (inorganic) are used in comparison. Kharif season is about 150 -160 days for paddy (June to November) whereas Rabi is for about 120- 135 days from December to April next yr). Generally the yield in Rabi is higher than in the kharif.
Regards
