It needs a cold winter to flower: a coldest month averaging 12 °C or less. Here the coldest month averages 16 °C.
Soil
Likes pH 5.5–6.5. We have no pH figures for this place.
Money
Yield: about 14 quintals an acre, the typical figure across India (no figures for your state).
A new planting gives its first real harvest after about 6 years. The money here is for plants already bearing.
On rain alone it gets about 77% of the water it needs, so the money here is worked at 77% of this yield.
