very frost sensitive.
*Although the cashew can withstand high temperatures, a monthly mean of 25 °C is regarded as optimal.
*Areas where the temperatures range from
20 to 30°C with an annual precipitation of 1000 - 2000 mm are ideal for cashew growing.
*The best soils for cashew are deep and well-drained sandy loams without a hard pan.
*Red sandy loam, lateritic soils and coastal sands with slightly acidic pH are best for cashew.
