It has a wide adaptability and can be grown in climates which are too hot and dry, and on soils which are too shallow and poor for successful cultivation of other cereals. It grows best in areas where annual daytime temperatures are within the range 20 - 32°c, but can tolerate 15 - 45°c. It prefers a mean annual rainfall in the range 500 - 750mm, but tolerates 200 - 1,000mm. The plant is best adapted to areas of low or medium relative air humidity.<ref name="How to plant/cultivate"/>
