MAURITANIA:

Widespread rains in early July permitted plantings to start in the south. The weather was mostly dry up to late June. Widespread and above normal rains covered the south and the south-east in early July where they permitted land preparation and wet plantings to start. The good rains will also favour regeneration of pastures.

Low numbers of solitary Desert Locusts adults are likely to appear in central and southern areas where they will eventually lay eggs once the seasonal rains commence. No significant developments are likely.
