Can fig (anjeer) be grown profitably in my area and what climate does it need?

Fig suits a dry to semi arid climate with hot dry summers and mild winters, and actually prefers areas without heavy rain during fruit ripening, which is why the Pune and Purandar belt in Maharashtra is famous for it; it also grows in parts of Gujarat, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh and other dry regions. It needs well drained soil and is fairly drought hardy once established, but heavy rain and humidity at ripening cause fruit splitting, rot and poor quality, so very wet humid zones are not ideal. It tolerates a range of soils including lighter and slightly alkaline ones if drainage is good, but not waterlogging. The Poona fig and similar types are well adapted to Indian dry conditions. Before planting confirm your soil and rainfall pattern with a KVK or horticulture office, since the timing of rain versus your fruiting season strongly affects quality and price.
