Wheat, gram, pea, and mustard are rabi crops.

Rabi crops are those that are sown in the winter season and harvested in the spring. They typically require cooler temperatures for growth. These crops are planted from October to December and harvested from March to May. Some examples of rabi crops include:

Wheat: Grown in the winter season and harvested in spring.
Gram: A type of pulse, grown in winter.
Pea: Also a winter season crop, harvested in spring.
Mustard: A winter season crop, harvested in early spring.
In contrast, kharif crops are sown during the monsoon season (June to September) and harvested in autumn. Examples of kharif crops include rice, maize, and cotton.
