Solution

The correct options are
C Millets
D Jowar
In areas of low rainfall and no irrigation facilities, crops that require less water are cultivated. Here farming depends completely on the amount of rainfall received. As rainfall is low, the amount of moisture accumulated in the soil will also be low. This type of farming is known as dry farming. Millets, Jowar, and pulses are cultivated in dry farming areas. Wheat and gram are grown in humid soil in Gujarat after the monsoon season.
