Crops prospects are generally favourable reflecting adequate growing conditions since late July. Following above normal rains in late July, rains decreased somewhat in early August, notably in the extreme south. They improved significantly during the second dekad and remained widespread in late August. Crops are developing satisfactorily in most agricultural zones. Stages of crop development vary between elongation/flowering/heading.
Pastures are abundant reflecting good rains in the pastoral zones. Grasshopper and other insect infestations are reported in several departments. The desert locust situation is reported to be calm but scattered adults are present and are expected to breed on a small-scale in Tamesna and perhaps in western Air. However, no significant developments are likely.
