On rain alone it gets about 90% of the water it needs, so the money here is worked at 90% of this yield.

Mandi price at last season's harvest (May–June 2026): about ₹2,850 a quintal across mandis in your state.

Prices are usually best in April.

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.
