République centrafricaine's regions

What grows here

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 above are gathered from every district in République centrafricaine, and the ground under them is not all the same. 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 République centrafricaine?

Is this exact for my own field?

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