The 2026/27 season in Kyenjojo

When the rains are expectedFebruary 2026 to January 2027
Rain in a typical yearAbout 1,124 mm
This season's rainLeaning wet — January, February, November and December look heavier than usual. Make sure water can drain off the field; a wet year does more damage through waterlogging and disease than through the rain itself.
This season's heatHotter than usual — about +1.2 °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 supportsenough rain for a long crop, or two in a year, warm all year, so nothing but rain ends the season
Ground this coversOne kind of ground throughout.

Plan the season, not just check it

Is there a farming app that works in Kyenjojo?

Divisi does. It reads Kyenjojo'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 Kyenjojo, not on your field. Soil, slope and rainfall change from one farm to the next. Check your own location to see your own numbers.
