B Correct answer
Explanation

Tamil Nadu's climate is predominantly tropical with hot summers and moderate winters - not suitable for wheat which requires cold winters (near 0°C) for proper growth. Wheat grows in northern states like Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Maharashtra, and Uttaranchal which have the required winter conditions. Rice is the major crop in Tamil Nadu.
