Which of the following groups of crops is related to the Kharif

Kharif Season:
The Kharif season refers to crops sown at the beginning of the monsoon (June–July) and harvested in September–October.
These crops depend heavily on rainfall and irrigation during the southwest monsoon.
Major Kharif Crops in Northern India:
Cereals: Rice, maize, sorghum (jowar), pearl millet (bajra).
Pulses: Moong, urad, arhar (pigeon pea).
Cash Crops: Cotton, soybean, groundnut, sugarcane (in some regions).
Contrast with Rabi Crops:
Rabi crops are sown in winter (October–November) and harvested in spring (March–April).
Examples: Wheat, barley, gram, mustard.
These rely on irrigation and winter rains, not monsoon rainfall.
Significance
Kharif crops are crucial for food security in India, especially rice and maize.

They form the backbone of monsoon agriculture, which supports millions of farmers.
The choice of crops varies by state depending on rainfall, soil type, and irrigation facilities.
In short: Rice, maize, millets, pulses, cotton, soybean, and groundnut are the main crops of the Kharif season in northern India, sown with the arrival of the monsoon rains.
