Soil and climate Avocados cannot tolerate northern India’s hot dry winds and frosts, typically grown in tropical or semitropical areas with rainfall in summer and humid, subtropical rainfall areas. Intolerant to saline conditions and optimum range of pH is from 5 to 7, are characteristics of this unique fruit. The climate zone of avocados is from true tropical to warmer parts of the temperate zone. Avocados can be grown on a wide range of soils, but they are extremely sensitive to poor drainage and cannot withstand water-logging. They are intolerant to saline conditions. Optimum range of pH is from 5 to 7. Depending on the race and varieties, avocados can thrive and perform well in climatic conditions ranging from true tropical to warmer parts of the temperate zone. In India, avocado is not a commercial fruit crop. It was introduced from Sri Lanka in the early part of the twentieth century. In a very limited scale and in a scattered way it is grown in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Maharashtra, Karnataka in the south-central India and in the eastern Himalayan state of Sikkim. It can not tolerate the hot dry winds and frosts of northern India. Climatically, it is grown in tropical or semitropical areas experiencing some rainfall in summer, and in humid, subtropical summer rainfall areas. Varieties All three horticultural races adapted to tropical and sub-tropical conditions i.e. West Indian, Guatemalan and Mexican have been tried in India. The cultivars of West Indian race are grown in localized pockets in Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. In tropical and near-tropical areas, only West Indian race is well-adapted but its hybrids with Guatemalan (e.g. Both selection) perform well and are considered valuable for extending the harvest season. In less tropical regions, hybrids of Guatemalan with Mexican race predominate since they combine the cold hardiness of the latter with the superior horticultural traits of both and also bridge the two seasons of maturity. In the eastern Himalayan state of Sikkim, avocado has been introduced successfully in hill ranges with an altitude of 800 to 1,600 metres. Both the Mexican and Gautemalan races are grown successfully in Sikkim. In avocado-growing areas of Sikkim, temperatures range from 12 to 30°C with an average annual rainfall of 2,000 millimetres. The Mexican race is cultivated on mid-altitude hills (pH 5-6). The fruit of Mexican race are Small (250 g) fruit type, ripening 6 to 8 months after flowering. Fruits have thin smooth skin with a large seed fitting loosely in the central cavity. Oil content is up to 30 per cent in the fruits. Trees of this race are cold hardy. The fruits of Guatemalan raceare fairly large, weighing up to 600 gand borne on long stalks. The fruits ripen 9-12 months after flowering. Fruit skin is thick and often warty. Seeds, held tightly in the hollow of the fruit, are small. The oil content in fruits ranges between 8 and 15 per cent. The fruits of West Indian race are medium in size and the fruit skin smooth, leathery and glossy. Fruits are borne on long stalks and require up to 9 months for ripening from the date of flowering. Its seeds are large, fitting loosely in the cavity. The oil content of the fruit is low (3-10 per cent). This race is suitable for warm tropical climates.The varieties Fuerte, Bacon, Zutano, Hass, Booth 7, Booth 8, Sharwil and Ettinger are reported to be promising (Table 3).
