Question:

Statement I :
Rabi crops are sown in winter and harvested in summers while 'Kharif' crops are grown with the onset of Monsoon and harvested in October.

Statement II :
Maize, jowar, and bajra are Rabi crops while wheat and barley are Kharif crops.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options:

Both statement I and statement II are true

Both statement I and statement II are false

Statement I is true but statement II is false

Statement I is false but statement II is true

Correct Answer:

Statement I is true but statement II is false

Explanation:

Statement I is true because Rabi crops are indeed sown in winter and harvested in summers, while Kharif crops are grown with the onset of monsoon and harvested in October.

However, Statement II is false. Maize, jowar, and bajra are actually Kharif crops, not Rabi crops.

Wheat and barley are indeed Kharif crops, but they can also be grown as Rabi crops in some regions.

Thus, Statement I is true but statement II is false is correct.
