Why wheat is cultivated during winter in India?

Wheat is cultivated during winter in India because it requires a cool climate for its growth and development. The temperature during winter is suitable for the germination and growth of wheat plants. Low temperature prevents the crop from drying and ensures proper development. During the ripening stage, bright sunshine and dry weather are required, which are available in the spring season. These climatic conditions make winter the most suitable season for wheat cultivation in India.
