How the soil score worksMoney
Yield: about 39 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 4 years. The money here is for plants already bearing.
On rain alone it gets about 74% of the water it needs, so the money here is worked at 74% of this yield.
Mandi price at last season's harvest (May–June 2026): about ₹4,125 a quintal across India's mandis.
- ₹5,260 2021
- ₹5,700 2022
- ₹5,610 2023
- ₹6,170 2024
- ₹5,860 2025
Prices are usually best in October.
Typical costs are about ₹16,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2024–2026), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
