What grows in Ahafo Ano South East
Ashanti, Ghana
The 2026 season in Ahafo Ano South East
| When the rains are expected | February 2026 to December 2026 |
|---|---|
| Rain in a typical year | About 1,244 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. |
| This season's heat | Hotter than usual — about +0.9 °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 | 3 kinds of ground. The season below is the largest that farms — about 75% of this area. |
| 75% | enough rain for a long crop, or two in a year; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 318 growing days · about 1,250 mm · February to December |

Is there a farming app that works in Ahafo Ano South East?
Divisi does. It reads Ahafo Ano South East'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.

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