Green Peas

Water

Too dry to grow on rain alone. It would need irrigation.

Temperature

Grows best at 10–24 °C on average, and survives 4–30 °C.

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

• Nov 28 °C / 11 °C
• Dec 22 °C / 7 °C
• Jan 18 °C / 6 °C
• Feb 23 °C / 9 °C

Soil

Soil for Green Peas: 8 out of 10 (good).

Not in the score: nitrogen and boron.

• The pH here suits it.
• Many fields here are short of potassium, which it needs a lot.
• Most fields here are short of manganese.

Likes pH 5.5–7.0.

Money

Yield: about 43 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 (February–March 2026): about ₹1,895 a quintal across mandis in your state.

Prices are usually best in September.

Typical costs are about ₹60,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2024–2026), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
