Pear
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
- Doesn't suit: Winters are too warm for it to fruit
- Suits: Soil 8/10
Why, and how to make it work Hide details
Water
Too dry to grow on rain alone. It would need irrigation.
Needs about 1,400 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 660 mm it can use in a normal year, and 580 mm in a dry year.
Temperature
Grows best at 20–35 °C on average, and survives 10–37 °C.
Here, in its growing months (day / night):
- Jun 39 °C / 27 °C
- Jul 32 °C / 24 °C
- Aug 30 °C / 24 °C
- Sep 31 °C / 23 °C
- Oct 33 °C / 20 °C
- Nov 30 °C / 15 °C
- Dec 27 °C / 11 °C (outside its best range)
- Jan 25 °C / 10 °C (outside its best range)
- Feb 29 °C / 13 °C
- Mar 34 °C / 18 °C
- Apr 40 °C / 23 °C
- May 43 °C / 27 °C
- Jun 39 °C / 27 °C
It needs a cold winter to flower: a coldest month averaging 13 °C or less. Here the coldest month averages 17 °C.
Days in May get hotter than it likes. Young plants need shade and water then.
Soil
Soil for Pear: 8 out of 10 (good).
- The pH here suits it.
- Many fields here are short of potassium, which it needs a lot.
- Many fields here are short of zinc, which it needs a lot.
- Many fields here are short of boron, which it needs a lot.
Likes pH 5.5–6.5.
How the soil score worksMoney
Yield: about 47 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 (July–September 2026): about ₹6,500 a quintal across India's mandis.
- ₹5,160 2021
- ₹3,940 2022
- ₹5,380 2023
- ₹5,550 2024
- ₹6,850 2025
Prices are usually best in February.
Typical costs are about ₹90,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2023–2025), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
