Deep sandy loam soil rich in organic matter is best for its successful cultivation. Peaches are highly susceptible to water logging and prefer perfect drainage. Fertile and heavy soils are hazardous as it makes heavy growth and hence results in winter injury. The pH of the soil should be between 5.8 and 6.8. Acidic and saline soils are unfit for peach cultivation.
Peach is a temperate fruit rich in proteins, sugar, minerals and vitamins. Introduction of the cultivated peaches into India probably took place in the latter half of the 19th century. Today, it is being grown in the midhill zone of the Himalayas extending from Jammu and Kashmir to Khasi hills 1,000—2.000 m above mean sea-level. It is also being grown to a limited scale in the hills of south India and in the north-eastern region of the country
