Rose

Water

Rain falls about 8 irrigations (5 cm each) short in a normal year, so it's risky without water.

Needs about 910 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 550 mm it can use in a normal year, and 450 mm in a dry year.

Temperature

Grows best at 20–24 °C on average, and survives 11–35 °C.

Soil

Soil for Rose: 9 out of 10 (good).

• The pH here suits it.
• Most fields here are short of boron.

Likes pH 6.0–7.0.

Money

Yield: about 70 quintals an acre, the typical figure across India (no figures for your state).

A new planting gives its first real harvest after about 2 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.
