How the soil score worksMoney
Yield: about 9.7 quintals an acre, the typical figure in your state (its government crop records list none for your district).
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.
