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.
On rain alone it gets about 76% of the water it needs, so the money here is worked at 76% of this yield.
