The rainy season started in early June. First rains were registered in mid-May in the east but the weather remained mostly dry in late May. Abundant precipitation covered almost the entire country in early June. Land preparation and plantings of coarse grains and rainfed rice are underway in the east and the north. Planting of rice in seedbeds has also started. Transplanting will take place in July/August after desalination of swamp rice fields by more rains.
The pest situation is calm. Insect attacks have been reported on Bolama Island.
Seed availability problems are likely in some areas, notably for groundnut.
