Jasmine

Water

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

Needs about 1,290 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 180 mm it can use in a normal year, and 110 mm in a dry year.

Temperature

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

Soil

Soil for Jasmine: 7 out of 10 (okay).

Not in the score: nitrogen and boron.

• Soil here is often more alkaline than it likes.
• Most fields here are short of phosphorus.
• Most fields here are short of organic carbon.
• Most fields here are short of manganese.

Likes pH 6.5–7.5.

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.
