Guava is a tough, evergreen little tree that fruits almost anywhere — it shrugs off heat, drought, and poor, sour or salty soil.

| Fit | Favourable | |
| When to plant (establish) | 10 Sep 2026 – 28 Jan 2027 open now | 21 Jan 2026 – 1 Jan 2027 |
| Expected harvest | about 12.5 t/ha | about 21.0 t/ha |

| Work it takes | 83–173 days per hectare, by hand | |
Rain-fed. These dates are worked out from each place's own rainfall, for a field watered by the season — with irrigation a window can open earlier, close later, or come round more than once a year. Check your own field under What grows, or get the Divisi app for a calendar dated to your farm.
If you only get one chance to plant, aim for around 8 Jan 2027. That is the point in the window where the rains are most reliably established.
This season's rainfall outlook for Fahs Anjra Province is close to normal, so these dates match the pattern the area usually follows.
Planting after 28 Jan 2027 leaves the crop short of season: it runs into the dry months before it has finished filling.
What decides this in Fahs Anjra Province
| Rain and temperature | 88% |
|---|---|
| The soil | 96% |
| The lie of the land | 30% |
For guava in Fahs Anjra Province, the lie of the land is the tightest of the three at 30%. You cannot flatten it, but you can farm it: plant along the contour rather than up and down, ridge or tie ridges to hold water on the slope, and expect shallower rooting than the crop would manage on flat ground.
