Haryana is located between 700 and 3600 feet, or 200 and 1200 meters, above sea level. The main crops grown in Haryana grow more as a result of higher production levels brought on by the implementation of appreciation.

Rice-wheat, bajra-wheat, cotton-wheat, and sugarcane-wheat are the main cropping systems, with a cropping intensity of over 184%. Compared with the national average of 19.2 q/ha, the average productivity of all food grains in the state has reached 35.27 q/ha.
