The 2027 season in Kpomasse
| Rainy seasons | One each year — one chance to plant, so timing carries it |
|---|---|
| When the rains are expected | March 2027 to November 2027 |
| Rain in a typical year | About 968 mm |
| This season's rain | Leaning dry — September and October 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. |
| What that supports | enough rain for one full main crop, warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season |
| Ground this covers | 2 kinds of ground. The season below is the largest that farms — about 88% of this area. |
| 88% | enough rain for one full main crop; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 253 growing days · about 980 mm · March to November |

Rain-fed. These dates are worked out from each place's own rainfall, for a field watered by the season — with irrigation a window can open earlier, close later, or come round more than once a year. Check your own field under What grows, or get the Divisi app for a calendar dated to your farm.
What Divisi would not plant in Kpomasse

Plan the season, not just check it
The crops and dates above are read at cells spread across Kpomasse, and the map colours which kind of ground each part of it is. Your own soil, slope and rainfall will shift the dates — the Divisi app works them out for your field, and dates each job that follows.

Frequently asked questions
What crops grow well in Kpomasse?
African eggplant, African nightshade, Amaranth, Bambara groundnut, Carrot all rate well in Kpomasse — scored against its own rainfall, soil and terrain rather than a national average.
When should I plant African eggplant in Kpomasse?
In Kpomasse the window for African eggplant runs 25 Mar 2027 to 21 Jun 2027.
Is there a farming app that works in Kpomasse?
Divisi does. It reads Kpomasse's own rainfall, soil and terrain rather than a national average, so the planting dates and crop shortlist on this page are the same ones the app works out for a field here — then dates each job for that field, and keeps working with no signal.
Is this exact for my own field?
No — these are readings taken across Kpomasse, not on your field. Soil, slope and rainfall change from one farm to the next. Check your own location to see your own numbers.
