When to plant Sugarcane in Evinayong
Centro Sur, Guinea Ecuatorial
Sugarcane is a tall, thick, sweet grass grown for the sugar it stores in its stalks.
| Measure | Rain-fed | With irrigation |
|---|---|---|
| Fit | Favourable | |
| When to plant (establish) | 20 Jul 2026 – 30 Jun 2027 open now | 21 Jan 2026 – 1 Jan 2027 |
| Expected harvest | about 62.9 t/ha | about 80.6 t/ha |
| Bearing cycle | 360–540 days per crop once the plant is established. Planting to the first harvest takes longer than one cycle. | |
| Work it takes | 150–315 days per hectare, by hand | |
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.
If you only get one chance to plant, aim for around 30 Jun 2027. That is the point in the window where the rains are most reliably established.
This season's rainfall outlook for Evinayong leans dry, so these dates sit later than the long-run average. Planting on the date you are used to risks germinating into a false start and having to replant.
Planting after 30 Jun 2027 leaves the crop short of season: it runs into the dry months before it has finished filling.
What decides this in Evinayong
| Rain and temperature | 88% |
|---|---|
| The soil | 76% |
| The lie of the land | 76% |
For sugarcane in Evinayong, the soil is the tightest of the three at 76%. This is the one you can actually move. Lime raises a sour soil, manure and compost lift what it holds, and both work within a season or two — money spent here changes the answer.
The 2026 season in Evinayong
| When the rains are expected | July 2026 to July 2026 |
|---|---|
| Rain in a typical year | About 2,173 mm |
| This season's rain | Leaning dry. Plant at the early end of the window and favour quicker, more drought-tolerant crops. |
| 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. |

What sugarcane needs to grow here
| Soil it likes | loam or clay loam |

What it takes to grow sugarcane in Evinayong
| Planting material | About 28,000 plants per hectare |
|---|---|
| Nitrogen (N) | About 88 kg per hectare |
| Phosphate (P₂O₅) | About 35 kg per hectare |
| Potash (K₂O) | About 198 kg per hectare |
| In the shops | A basal compound at planting — Compound D, or an NPK blend — covers the phosphate and potash. A nitrogen top dressing — urea or AN — goes on once the crop is established. |
| Hand work | 150–315 days per hectare, by hand |
These are the nutrients a sugarcane crop of that size carries off the field. What you actually apply depends on what your soil already holds — which is what a soil test, or the app's field records, tell you.
