Solution(By Examveda Team)

Fruit bud differentiation in Aonla takes place from March - April.
Aonla being a sub-tropical crop prefers a dry sub-tropical climate. Heavy frost during the winter season is not suitable for its cultivation. Slightly acidic to saline/sodic soil having a pH between 6.5 to 9.5 is suitable for cultivation.
Aonla is propagated by budding or softwood grafting. Planting of aonla is mainly done in July - August. An aonla tree may bear 1 - 3 q/tree, giving 15 - 20 tonnes/ha.
