Rain in a typical yearAbout 1,378 mm
This season's rainLeaning dry — September, October, November and December look short of rain. Plant at the early end of the window, favour quicker and more drought-tolerant crops, and keep moisture in the soil: mulch, and weed early.
This season's heatHotter than usual — about +1.5 °C over the growing months. Heat makes the same rain do less, so a dry spell bites sooner: do not plant late, and shade or mulch what you can.

Is this exact for my own field?

No — these are readings taken across Buengas, not on your field. Soil, slope and rainfall change from one farm to the next. Check your own location to see your own numbers.
