Thai Golden Custard Apple Soil Condition:-

 All annonas are tropical in origin and grow well in a hot and dry climate with varying degrees of difference. Custard Apple requires a hot dry climate during flowering and high humidity at the fruit set. Flowering comes during a hot dry climate of May but fruit setting takes place at the onset of the monsoon. Low humidity is harmful to pollination and fertilization. The Custard Apple withstands drought conditions cloudy weather and also when the temperatures go below 15 deg. cent. Annual rainfall of 50-80 cm is optimum, though it can withstand higher rainfall.

The Custard Apple is not very particular about soil conditions and flourishes in all types of soils like shallow, sandy, but fails to grow if the subsoil is ill drained. It can grow well in deep black soils provided they are well-drained. A little salinity or acidity does not affect it but alkalinity, chlorine, poor drainage or marshy-wet lands hamper the growth and fruiting.
