Soil

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

Likes pH 6.0–7.0.

Money

Yield: about 4.0 quintals an acre, the typical figure in your state (your district's own figure looked wrong).

Rain gives it too little of the water it needs, so there's no income figure on rain alone: grow it only with irrigation.
