In North India, preferably which bahar should be taken for guava?

• Mrig bahar refers to the flowering period induced in the monsoon season (June-July), with fruits maturing in winter (November-December). This period is ideal for guava cultivation in North India because:
The cooler climate during fruit maturation enhances fruit quality and size.
It avoids the extreme summer heat that can stress guava plants.

📌Other Options Explanations:
 (a) Ambe bahar: This flowering occurs in spring (February-March), leading to fruiting in the hot summer, which is less suitable for guava in North India due to high temperatures.
 (c) Hasth bahar: Refers to the flowering in October-November, which is less commonly used in North India for guava cultivation.

🛑 Additional Information:::
The mrig bahar crop is harvested in the month of December to February.
Usually this bahar is favoured as the flowering and fruiting period coincides with monsoon season, and the crop is taken without much irrigation.
The fruits develop during the rainy season and mature during winter.
This bahar is preferred in arid and semi-arid region due to limited water availability and climatic condition.
