Jasmine

Water

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

Needs about 1,210 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 410 mm it can use in a normal year, and 270 mm in a dry year.

Grows best at 20–35 °C on average, and survives 14–37 °C.

Soil

Soil for Jasmine: 8 out of 10 (good).

Not in the score: nitrogen and boron.

• The pH here suits it.

Money

Yield: about 42 quintals an acre, the typical figure across India (no figures for your state).

A new planting gives its first real harvest after about 3 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.
