The 2026 season in Quardu Boundi
| When the rains are expected | February 2026 to December 2026 |
|---|---|
| Rain in a typical year | About 2,391 mm |
| This season's rain | Rain close to usual — plan around about 2,391 mm falling roughly when it always does |
| 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. |

Plan the season, not just check it
The crops and dates above are read at cells spread across Quardu Boundi, 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.

Is there a farming app that works in Quardu Boundi?
Divisi does. It reads Quardu Boundi'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 Quardu Boundi, not on your field. Soil, slope and rainfall change from one farm to the next. Check your own location to see your own numbers.
