Solution

The correct option is A Paddy
Any crop that can be grown between October and March or during winter seasons are called rabi crops such as wheat, cotton, maize, etc., as they do not require more water to grow.
Whereas crops that grow during the rainy season are called kharif crops such as paddy as they require more water to grow.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
