Climate and soil

  • It needs 19-430C for seed germination.
  • Requires 29-360C for vegetative growth and 20-280C for seed production.
  • 29-36 0C (for rapid growth and development), 24 0C (for flowering).
  • Below 15 0C during the initial stage, germination is delayed by 2 weeks.
  • Below 16 0C during the growth period, the rate of growth is drastically reduced.
  • Requires a bright sunny weather during the flowering and pod setting stage.
  • Well adapted to drought prone areas due to its deep root system.
  • It does not tolerate water logging and frost.
  • Excessive rainfall at the time of flowering reduces the crop yield heavily.
  • Can be grown in all soil except clay soil with a pH range of 6-6.5.
