Water

Rain falls about 5 irrigations (5 cm each) short in a normal year, so it's risky without water.

Needs about 360 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 150 mm it can use in a normal year, and 90 mm in a dry year.

Temperature

• May 18 °C / 7 °C
• Jun 22 °C / 10 °C
• Jul 22 °C / 12 °C
• Aug 21 °C / 11 °C

Soil

Soil for Green Peas: 10 out of 10 (good).

• The pH here suits it.

Money

Yield: about 54 quintals an acre, the typical figure in your state (its government crop records list none for your district).

Rain gives it too little of the water it needs, so there's no income figure on rain alone: grow it only with irrigation.

Mandi price at last season's harvest (August–September 2026): about ₹10,600 a quintal across mandis in your state.

Prices are usually best in September.

Typical costs are about ₹2.0 lakh an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2023–2025), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
