Rose

Water

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

Needs about 1,430 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 510 mm it can use in a normal year, and 400 mm in a dry year.

Temperature

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

Here, in its growing months (day / night):

• Jun 37 °C / 25 °C (outside its best range)

• May 42 °C / 27 °C (outside its best range)

Months in orange are outside its best range.

Days in April get hotter than it likes. Young plants need shade and water then.

Soil

Soil for Rose: 8 out of 10 (good).

• The pH here suits it.
• Most fields here are short of organic carbon.
• Most fields here are short of sulphur.
• Most fields here are short of zinc.

Likes pH 6.0–7.0.

Money

Yield: about 93 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 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.
