Pear

Water

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

Needs about 1,380 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 480 mm it can use in a normal year, and 320 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 40 °C / 29 °C
• Jul 34 °C / 26 °C
• Aug 32 °C / 25 °C
• Sep 34 °C / 25 °C
• Oct 35 °C / 21 °C
• Nov 31 °C / 15 °C
• Dec 26 °C / 11 °C (outside its best range)
• Jan 24 °C / 10 °C (outside its best range)
• Feb 28 °C / 13 °C
• Mar 34 °C / 19 °C
• Apr 40 °C / 24 °C
• May 43 °C / 29 °C (outside its best range)
• Jun 40 °C / 29 °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: 9 out of 10 (good).

Not in the score: nitrogen, sulphur and boron.

• The pH here suits it.
• Many fields here are short of zinc, which it needs a lot.

Likes pH 5.5–6.5.

Money

Yield: about 34 quintals an acre, the typical figure across India (no figures for your state).

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 ₹5,000 a quintal across mandis in your state.

Prices are usually best in January.

Typical costs are about ₹66,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2023–2025), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.
