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

Needs about 330 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 50 mm it can use in a normal year, and 30 mm in a dry year.

Temperature

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

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

• Oct 29 °C / 20 °C (outside its best range)
• Nov 28 °C / 19 °C
• Dec 28 °C / 16 °C
• Jan 29 °C / 16 °C

Months in orange are outside its best range.

Soil

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

• The pH here suits it.
• Low nitrogen matters less: it makes its own.

• Most fields here are short of zinc.

Money

Yield: about 37 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 ₹4,002 a quintal across mandis in your state.

Prices are usually best in July.

Typical costs are about ₹49,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2024–2026), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
