Abstract

India's agrarian economy is underpinned by diverse agricultural practices, with Kharif crops playing a vital role. These crops, sown at the onset of the monsoon and harvested post-monsoon, are essential for both food production and rural livelihoods. The Kharif season, running from June to October, is marked by heavy reliance on monsoon rainfall, making crop management highly sensitive to climatic variations. This paper delves into the characteristics, cultivation practices, and the socio-economic impact of Kharif crops, while highlighting the role of modern technologies and governmental policies in enhancing crop productivity and sustainability. It also discusses the emerging challenges posed by climate change and the potential of innovative farming techniques to address these issues.
