What grows in Vohemar
Sava, Madagascar
The 2026 season in Vohemar
| When the rains are expected | October 2026 to October 2026 |
|---|---|
| Rain in a typical year | About 1,623 mm |
| This season's rain | Leaning dry — October looks 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 +0.8 °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 | 4 kinds of ground. The season below is the largest that farms — about 56% of this area. |
| 56% | enough rain for a long crop, or two in a year; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 365 growing days · about 1,690 mm · September to September |
|---|---|
| 28% | enough rain for one full main crop; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 208 growing days · about 1,480 mm · November to May |
| 11% | enough rain for a long crop, or two in a year; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 286 growing days · about 1,550 mm · October to August |
| 3% | enough rain for a long crop, or two in a year; warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season 344 growing days · about 1,520 mm · September to September |

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 and dates above are read at cells spread across Vohemar, 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 Vohemar?
Divisi does. It reads Vohemar'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 Vohemar, not on your field. Soil, slope and rainfall change from one farm to the next. Check your own location to see your own numbers.
