Correct Answer:

High temperature and high humidity 

Explanation:

- Cultivation of rice need high rainfall with high temperature and high humidity.

- Rice is typically grown in regions with warm to hot temperatures. The ideal temperature range for rice cultivation is between 20°C to 35°C (68°F to 95°F).

- Rice cultivation generally requires high humidity levels, especially during the early stages of growth. The ideal relative humidity for rice cultivation is around 70% to 90%.

- High humidity is crucial during the flowering stage to facilitate proper pollination and grain development.

- It also necessitates standing water during certain growth stages. The standing water helps in weed control, conserving soil moisture, and creating the necessary environment for the rice plants to grow and develop properly.
