Cameroon
The 2026 season in Littoral
| When the rains are expected | February 2026 to December 2026 |
|---|---|
| Rain in a typical year | About 3,028 mm in a typical farming district |
| Across its districts | From about 1,898 mm in the driest of 4 districts to about 3,028 mm in the wettest |
| This season's rain | Leaning dry — February, 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 heat | Hotter than usual — about +0.7 °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.
Plan the season, not just check it
The crops above are gathered from every district in Littoral, and the ground under them is not all the same. 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.
This calendar moves
Planting windows shift with the forecast. Leave your email and we'll send what changed, and a note when planting time nears — a couple of emails a month at most.
Frequently asked questions
What crops grow well in Littoral?
Cashew, Lime, Mandarin, Mango, Pearl millet all rate well in Littoral — scored against its own rainfall, soil and terrain rather than a national average.
When should I plant Cashew in Littoral?
In Littoral the window for Cashew runs 2 Feb 2026 to 16 Oct 2026.
Is there a farming app that works in Littoral?
Divisi does. It reads Littoral'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 Littoral, not on your field. Soil, slope and rainfall change from one farm to the next. Check your own location to see your own numbers.
