    Q1. An irrigated Punjab farm grows wheat in rabi mainly because winter temperatures and dependable canal water mimic which production advantage?

    • A) It copies a tropical rainforest moisture regime
    • B) It matches the cool-season wheat belt pattern with controlled water
    • C) It depends on heavy monsoon rain during grain filling
    • D) It needs deep desert dew collection only
