Soil and Agro-climatic Suitability for Kinnow Cultivation: A Case Study of the Agra Region

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The fertile, well-drained loamy soils and subtropical climate of the Agra region create ideal conditions for Kinnow (Santra) cultivation. This study examines soil types, pH levels, and agro-climatic conditions that optimize Kinnow yields. Key factors such as sunlight, rainfall, and altitude variations are explored, with practical guidelines provided for soil management and irrigation. The findings offer valuable insights for farmers aiming for sustainable and profitable Kinnow production, though challenges such as water management and market accessibility require further exploration. This research highlights Agra's potential for expanding citrus cultivation while addressing key agricultural constraints.
