What grows in Haut-Nyong
East, Cameroon
The 2026 season in Haut-Nyong
| When the rains are expected | February 2026 to December 2026 |
|---|---|
| Rain in a typical year | About 1,393 mm |
| This season's rain | Leaning dry — September, October and November 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 heat | Hotter than usual — about +1.0 °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 a long crop, or two in a year, warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season |
| Ground this covers | One kind of ground throughout. |

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 Haut-Nyong 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 Haut-Nyong, 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 Haut-Nyong?
African nightshade, Cashew, Cucumber, Jute mallow, Okra all rate well in Haut-Nyong — scored against its own rainfall, soil and terrain rather than a national average.
When should I plant African nightshade in Haut-Nyong?
In Haut-Nyong the window for African nightshade runs 11 Mar 2026 to 22 Sep 2026.
Is there a farming app that works in Haut-Nyong?
Divisi does. It reads Haut-Nyong'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 Haut-Nyong, not on your field. Soil, slope and rainfall change from one farm to the next. Check your own location to see your own numbers.
