Mango
Holds the land all year
No figures for your district: its government crop records list no area or yield for this crop. Priced from mandis across India.
Only with irrigation: rain gives too little of its water to count on
- Doesn't suit: Too dry without irrigation
- Suits: Ideal temperatures
- Suits: Soil 9/10
Why, and how to make it work Hide details
Water
Too dry to grow on rain alone. It would need irrigation.
Needs about 1,220 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 680 mm it can use in a normal year, and 600 mm in a dry year.
Temperature
Grows best at 24–30 °C on average, and survives 8–48 °C.
Here, in its growing months (day / night):
- Jun 34 °C / 24 °C
- Jul 30 °C / 23 °C
- Aug 29 °C / 23 °C
- Sep 30 °C / 23 °C

- Many fields here are short of boron, which it needs a lot.
Likes pH 5.5–7.5.
How the soil score worksMoney
Yield: about 33 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.
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 (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.
