Pearl millet can grow in areas with low soil fertility, and high salinity or low pH, making it a good alternative to other crops. It can also tolerate acidic sub-soils that are high in aluminum content. However, it does not tolerate waterlogging or clay soils.
Pearl millet can be cultivated in areas with drought and high temperatures. It needs high daytime temperatures for the grain to mature. Despite its drought resistance, it requires evenly distributed rainfall throughout the season.
