For field preparation, soil should be ploughed 2-3 times with a power tiller or with a spade. Planking is done during the last ploughing to make friable soil bed for sowing.
The ideal temperature range for the proper growth of this crop is 10-27°C. Above 30 °C, the flower drop is a serious problem, and below 5 °C the developing pods and branches can be damaged.
