Flower Yield & Production & Revenue
Counts marigold
Enter plants, grams per plant per picking and the number of pickings to get the total yield, yield per picking and revenue at your per-kg price.
Project your flower harvest
Next: expect about 6,000 kg over 30 pickings (~200 kg each) — at ₹50/kg that is roughly ₹3,00,000 gross.
Yields per picking rise then fall over the season and depend on variety, spacing, irrigation and weather; market price for loose flowers (jasmine, marigold, chrysanthemum) swings sharply around festivals.

Add up every picking, price it for the festival peak
Loose-flower crops don't yield in one harvest — marigold, jasmine, chrysanthemum and rose are picked again and again across the season, so the real yield is each picking stacked over the whole crop. That makes the maths simple but easy to underestimate: plants times grams per plant per picking gives one round, and multiplying by the number of pickings gives the season total. Get the per-picking figure right and the rest falls into place.
This tool gives the total yield in kg, the yield per picking, the plant count and the revenue at your per-kg price. Because flower prices swing hard with festivals and weddings, timing your heaviest pickings to peak demand can lift earnings from the same crop. Pair it with the Plant Spacing & Population calculator to get your plant count and the Crop Profit calculator to turn revenue into margin.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a flower yield calculator do?+
It estimates how much loose flower a crop produces and what it earns: total yield in kilograms, yield per picking and revenue at your per-kg price. You enter the number of plants, grams each plant gives per picking and how many pickings the season has — the tool does the rest.
How is loose-flower yield calculated?+
Total yield = plants × grams per plant per picking × number of pickings. Loose-flower crops like marigold, jasmine, chrysanthemum and rose are picked repeatedly across the season, so the per-picking yield is multiplied by the number of pickings to get the season total, then converted from grams to kilograms.
What is yield per picking?+
It's how much you harvest in a single round of picking — plants × grams per plant per picking. Since flowers are picked many times over the season, this is the figure that fills each day's crates and drives daily cash flow. The total simply stacks every picking together.
How many pickings does a flower crop give?+
It varies by crop and season — loose-flower crops are harvested repeatedly, often every few days during peak bloom, giving anywhere from a handful to dozens of pickings over the season. Enter the number realistic for your crop, variety and how long you keep the field in production.
How do I estimate grams per plant per picking?+
Pick a representative sample of plants once, weigh the flowers, and divide by the number of plants to get an average grams-per-plant figure for that picking. Use that as your input. It shifts with plant age, weather and the stage of the season, so re-check it as the crop matures.
Why does revenue swing so much?+
Loose-flower prices are highly seasonal — they spike around festivals and weddings when demand for garlands and decoration surges, then fall in lean periods. Because revenue is yield × per-kg price, timing your peak pickings to festival demand can earn far more from the same crop.
Which flowers does this work for?+
Any loose-flower crop sold by weight — marigold, jasmine, chrysanthemum, rose and similar. The model is the same: plants picked repeatedly, weighed per picking and priced per kilogram. Just enter the grams-per-plant and price that match your crop and market.
Can I use it to plan revenue before planting?+
Yes — put in your planned plant population, an expected grams-per-plant from local benchmarks, the likely number of pickings and a conservative price to project total yield and revenue before you commit. It's a quick way to compare flower crops against each other or against other options.
Does it handle any field size?+
It works from the number of plants, so it scales to any field — pair it with the Plant Spacing & Population calculator to get the plant count for your area, then drop that number in here for the yield and revenue.
Are the figures exact?+
They're planning figures. Real yield depends on variety, spacing, irrigation, nutrition, pest pressure, weather and how thoroughly the crop is picked, and revenue depends on the price you actually get. Use the output to plan and budget, then refine the grams-per-plant and price against your own harvest records.
