Why, and how to make it work Hide details
Water
Rain falls about 4 irrigations (5 cm each) short in a normal year, so it's risky without water.
Needs about 1,080 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 920 mm it can use in a normal year, and 640 mm in a dry year.
Temperature
Grows best at 20–33 °C on average, and survives 10–45 °C.

Money
Yield: about 60 quintals an acre, the typical figure across India (no figures for your state).
A new planting gives its first real harvest after about 2 years. The money here is for plants already bearing.
On rain alone it gets about 85% of the water it needs, so the money here is worked at 85% of this yield.
Mandi price at last season's harvest (December 2025–February 2026): about ₹3,000 a quintal across India's mandis.
This week: about ₹4,000 a quintal, the middle of 128 mandis across India (latest 13 Nov). At that price an acre would leave about ₹1.2 lakh a year after typical costs.
