Your plan for Pauri Garhwal

Nothing fits well this season. Look at the crops below that are possible with effort, or try another season.

1. Lemon

   Holds the land all year

   Counted with lime in government figures. Priced from mandis across your state.

   ₹41,000–₹61,000

   per acre a year, before costs

   once bearing, from about year 3

   At typical costs, from a loss of ₹156 to a profit of ₹20,000 an acre a year

   • Needs care: Risky: 6 irrigations short
   • Needs care: Frost risk in December
   • Needs care: Soil 7/10

   Why, and how to make it work Hide details

   Water

   Rain falls about 6 irrigations (5 cm each) short in a normal year, so it's risky without water.

   Rain covers 71% of its need dry year

   Needs about 900 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 640 mm it can use in a normal year, and 510 mm in a dry year.

   Temperature

   Grows best at 15–28 °C on average, and survives 12–36 °C.

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

   • Jun 31 °C / 20 °C
   • Jul 28 °C / 21 °C
   • Aug 27 °C / 20 °C
   • Sep 27 °C / 19 °C

   • Apr 30 °C / 16 °C
   • May 32 °C / 19 °C
   • Jun 31 °C / 20 °C

   Months in orange are outside its best range.

   Nights in December can bring frost. When frost is forecast, water the field lightly in the evening.

   Soil

   Soil for Lemon: 7 out of 10 (okay).

   • The pH here suits it.
   • Many fields here are short of potassium, which it needs a lot.
   • Many fields here are short of boron, which it needs a lot.
   • Most fields here are short of nitrogen.

   Likes pH 6.5–7.0.

   How the soil score works

   Money

   Yield: about 17 quintals an acre, the typical figure in your state (its government crop records list none for your district). Government figures count it with lime.

   A new planting gives its first real harvest after about 3 years. The money here is for plants already bearing.

   On rain alone it gets about 71% of the water it needs, so the money here is worked at 71% of this yield.

   Mandi price through the year (December 2025–November 2026): about ₹4,275 a quintal across mandis in your state.

   This week: about ₹3,600 a quintal, the middle of 3 mandis in your state (latest 11 Nov). At that price an acre would leave about ₹2,000 a year after typical costs.

   1. ₹2,950 2022
   2. ₹2,800 2023
   3. ₹3,410 2024
   4. ₹3,660 2025

   Prices are usually best in April.

   Typical costs are about ₹41,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2023–2025), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.

   How to make it work

   • Short of nitrogen Your soil is likely short of nitrogen.

     Add about a quarter more urea than the usual dose, in two or three splits. A pulse crop in rotation also adds nitrogen.

     Ask your Krishi Vigyan Kendra what to add for this crop.

2. Sweet Orange (Mosambi)

   Holds the land all year

   No figures for your district: its government crop records list no area or yield for this crop. Sold at 2 mandis in your district.

   ₹1.0 lakh–₹1.5 lakh

   per acre a year, before costs

   once bearing, from about year 4

   At typical costs, from a loss of ₹24,000 to a profit of ₹28,000 an acre a year

   • Needs care: Risky: 6 irrigations short
   • Needs care: Frost risk in December
   • Needs care: Soil 7/10

   Soil

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

   • The pH here suits it.
   • Many fields here are short of potassium, which it needs a lot.
   • Many fields here are short of boron, which it needs a lot.
   • Most fields here are short of nitrogen.

   Likes pH 5.5–7.5.

   How the soil score works

   Money

   Yield: about 45 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.

   Mandi price at last season's harvest (January–March 2026): about ₹1,900 a quintal across mandis in your state.

   Prices are usually best in April.

   Typical costs are about ₹66,000 an acre: about half of what a usual harvest earns (2024–2026), as in farm cost surveys. They are spent whatever the harvest.

   How to make it work

   • Short of nitrogen Your soil is likely short of nitrogen.

     Add about a quarter more urea than the usual dose, in two or three splits. A pulse crop in rotation also adds nitrogen.

     Ask your Krishi Vigyan Kendra what to add for this crop.

10. Curry Leaf

    Holds the land all year

    No figures for your district: its government crop records list no area or yield for this crop.

    Only with irrigation: rain gives too little of its water to count on

    • Needs care: Risky: 6 irrigations short
    • Needs care: Frost risk in December
    • Suits: Soil 8/10

    Why, and how to make it work Hide details

    Water

    Rain falls about 6 irrigations (5 cm each) short in a normal year, so it's risky without water.

    Rain covers 70% of its need dry year

    Needs about 920 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 640 mm it can use in a normal year, and 510 mm in a dry year.

    Temperature

    Grows best at 27–41 °C on average, and survives 8–47 °C.

    Nights in December can bring frost. When frost is forecast, water the field lightly in the evening.
