Guava

Water

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

Needs about 1,400 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 320 mm it can use in a normal year, and 210 mm in a dry year.

• The pH here suits it.

Money

Yield: about 65 quintals an acre, the typical figure in your state (its government crop records list none for your district).

A new planting gives its first real harvest after about 2 years. The money here is for plants already bearing.

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 (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).

Prices are usually best in June.

Typical costs are about ₹93,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2024–2026), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
