The winter season crops are known as Rabi crops, which are grown from October to March. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **False (F)**. 2. **Statement (ii): Drip irrigation is very useful for areas having a shortage of water.** - **Analysis:** Drip irrigation is a method that delivers water directly to the roots of plants in a controlled manner, making it very efficient for water conservation, especially in areas where water is scarce. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **True (T)**. 3. **Statement (iii): Manures are mineral specific as they provide all the minerals needed by plants.** - **Analysis:** Manures are organic substances that provide essential nutrients to plants, but they are not mineral specific. They do not necessarily provide all the minerals in a specific amount, as they are more general nutrient sources. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **False (F)**. 4. **Statement (iv): Broadcasting of seeds is done by...** - **Analysis:** The statement is incomplete.
