GUINEA-BISSAU:

The start of the rainy season is delayed. Satellite imagery indicates that the weather remained mostly dry until early June. This situation may affect crop production as the growing season usually starts in late April/early May.

The availability of seeds may be limited in the chronically food deficit areas along the northern border with Senegal.
