What grows in Comoe
Tannounyan, Burkina Faso
The 2027 season in Comoe
| Rainy seasons | One each year — one chance to plant, so timing carries it |
|---|---|
| When the rains are expected | April 2027 to October 2027 |
| Rain in a typical year | About 959 mm |
| This season's rain | Leaning dry — September looks 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 heat | Hotter than usual — about +1.3 °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. |
| 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 87% of this area. |
| 87% | enough rain for one full main crop; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 219 growing days · about 1,020 mm · April to November |
|---|---|
| 13% | enough rain for one short crop, and only if timed to it; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 176 growing days · about 970 mm · April to October |

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 grows in Comoe with irrigation
These need water applied — rain alone will not carry them here. The dates are the windows their own water supply allows.

Plan the season, not just check it
The crops and dates above are read at cells spread across Comoe, 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 Comoe?
African eggplant, African nightshade, Amaranth, Bambara groundnut, Carrot all rate well in Comoe — scored against its own rainfall, soil and terrain rather than a national average.
When should I plant African eggplant in Comoe?
In Comoe the window for African eggplant runs 22 May 2027 to 20 Aug 2027.
Is there a farming app that works in Comoe?
Divisi does. It reads Comoe'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 Comoe, not on your field. Soil, slope and rainfall change from one farm to the next. Check your own location to see your own numbers.
