Why, and how to make it work Hide details
Water
Rain falls about 1 irrigation (5 cm) short in a normal year, so it's risky without water.
Needs about 260 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain in its months gives about 60 mm it can use in a normal year (30 mm in a dry one), and the soil holds about 160 mm from the monsoon at sowing.
Temperature
Grows best at 15–24 °C on average, and survives 7–32 °C.
Here, in its growing months (day / night):
- Oct 28 °C / 20 °C (outside its best range)
- Nov 25 °C / 15 °C
- Dec 22 °C / 11 °C
- Jan 22 °C / 10 °C
Months in orange are outside its best range.
Soil
Likes pH 6.0–7.5. We have no pH figures for this place.
Money
Yield: about 56 quintals an acre, the typical figure in your state (its government crop records list none for your district).
On rain alone it gets about 83% of the water it needs, so the money here is worked at 83% of this yield.
Mandi price at last season's harvest (January–February 2026): about ₹2,500 a quintal across mandis in your state.
Prices are usually best in July.
Typical costs are about ₹35,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2024–2026), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
