What grows in Ga South Municipal
Greater Accra, Ghana
The 2027 season in Ga South Municipal
| Rainy seasons | One each year — one chance to plant, so timing carries it |
|---|---|
| When the rains are expected | February 2027 to December 2027 |
| Rain in a typical year | About 1,019 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 +0.6 °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 62% of this area. |
| 62% | enough rain for a long crop, or two in a year; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 278 growing days · about 990 mm · February to December |
|---|---|
| 25% | enough rain for one full main crop; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 264 growing days · about 900 mm · March to November |
| 12% | enough rain for a long crop, or two in a year; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 316 growing days · about 1,100 mm · February to December |
