Green Peas

Water

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

Needs about 350 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain in its months gives about 50 mm it can use in a normal year (20 mm in a dry one), and the soil holds about 0 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 32 °C / 23 °C (outside its best range)
• Nov 31 °C / 21 °C (outside its best range)
• Dec 30 °C / 19 °C (outside its best range)
• Jan 32 °C / 19 °C (outside its best range)

Months in orange are outside its best range.

Soil

Soil for Green Peas: 9 out of 10 (good).

• The pH here suits it.
• Low nitrogen matters less: it makes its own.
• Most fields here are short of organic carbon.

Likes pH 5.5–7.0.

Money

Yield: about 24 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 (January–February 2026): about ₹2,244 a quintal across India's mandis.

Prices are usually best in October.

Typical costs are about ₹32,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2024–2026), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
