• Limes require more water; irrigation may be given if top 25cm soil becomes dry.
  
• Check bund system is best as it will not allow the contact of water with the stem.
  
• Drip irrigation improves yield.
Interculture

• Weeds can be controlled by using weedicides like Monouron, Diuron, Gramaxone, etc.
