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 Divisi would not plant in Sigowet/Soin
Every crop in the catalogue is scored against this district, not only the ones that work — so the list above is a decision rather than a shortlist. These are the rest, with what ruled each one out.
- Coconut Unsuitable — Temperature
Divisi scored 74 crops against this district's own ground; 1 came back without a sowing date.
Plan the season, not just check it
The crops and dates above are read at cells spread across Sigowet/Soin, 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 Sigowet/Soin?
Cassava, Arabica coffee, Grapefruit, Lemon, Lime all rate well in Sigowet/Soin — scored against its own rainfall, soil and terrain rather than a national average.
When should I plant Cassava in Sigowet/Soin?
In Sigowet/Soin the window for Cassava runs 10 Feb 2026 to 21 Jan 2027.
Is there a farming app that works in Sigowet/Soin?
Divisi does. It reads Sigowet/Soin'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 Sigowet/Soin, not on your field. Soil, slope and rainfall change from one farm to the next. Check your own location to see your own numbers.
