Water

Rain falls about 1 irrigation (5 cm) short in a normal year, so it's risky without water.

Needs about 250 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain in its months gives about 50 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 10–24 °C on average, and survives 4–30 °C.

Here, in its growing months (day / night):

• Oct 28 °C / 19 °C
• Nov 26 °C / 13 °C
• Dec 22 °C / 9 °C
• Jan 22 °C / 8 °C

Soil

Likes pH 5.5–7.0. We have no pH figures for this place.

Money

Yield: about 32 quintals an acre, the typical figure in your state (its government crop records list none for your district).

On rain alone it gets about 86% of the water it needs, so the money here is worked at 86% of this yield.

Mandi price at last season's harvest (January–February 2026): about ₹2,244 a quintal across India's mandis.

Prices are usually best in October.

Typical costs are about ₹42,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2024–2026), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
