The crops that are sown in the rainy season are called kharif crops. (also known
as the summer or monsoon crop) in India. Kharif crops are usually sown with the
beginning of the first rains in July, during the south-west monsoon season. The
main monsoon season in India runs from June to September and the southwest summer
monsoon occur due to a low pressure area that's caused by the extreme heat of the
Thar Desert and adjoining areas, during summer.
