Soil
Likes pH 5.5–6.5. We have no pH figures for this place.
Money
Yield: about 9.2 quintals an acre, the typical figure across India (no figures for your state).
A new planting gives its first real harvest after about 3 years. The money here is for plants already bearing.
Rain gives it too little of the water it needs, so there's no income figure on rain alone: grow it only with irrigation.
