The crops that are sown in the rainy season are called kharif crops. The Kharif crop (Hindi: ख़रीफ़, Urdu: خريف, Punjabi: ਖ਼ਰੀਫ਼) is the autumn harvest (also known as the summer or monsoon crop) in India and Pakistan. The term Kharif means "autumn" in Arabic. Kharif crops are usually sown with the beginning of the first rains in July, during the south-west monsoon season. In Pakistan Kharif season starts on 16 April and lasts on 15 October
