Climate and Soil: Cashew trees thrive in tropical climates with warm temperatures. They are sensitive to frost. The soil should be well-drained to prevent waterlogging. Sandy loam or laterite soils are generally suitable.
Watering: Cashew trees are drought-tolerant but require adequate water during the growing season, especially in the first two years. Once established, they are more resistant to dry conditions.
Fertilization: Cashew trees benefit from regular fertilization, especially with a balanced fertilizer that includes nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Apply fertilizer in split doses during the growing season.
