Detailed Solution

The better irrigation system was the main reason for Palampur to be able to cultivate different crops in a year even though the land was fixed. In the village of Palampur, no land is left idle. All the wastelands have been converted into cultivable lands. Palampur cultivated different crops throughout the year. In the rainy season, which is called the Kharif season, farmers grow crops like jowar and bajra. In the rabi season (winter season), farmers mainly cultivate wheat. They keep some wheat for consumption and sell the surplus in the market.
