Tur is also known as arhar. It is the second most important pulse crop after the gram and a major Kharif crop in India. Kharif crops are also known as monsoon crops. The Kharif cropping season is from July to October. Kharif crops are sown in the rainy season and harvested in September or October. They require rainfall and a hot and humid climate; the seeds of Kharif crops are planted at the beginning of the rainy season. Other major Kharif crops include rice, bajra, groundnut, cotton, soybean, jute, etc. In India, tur is mainly eaten as a split pulse as dal.
