ABSTRACT
This shows two clearly defined seasons: a dry season lasting about half the year (October to March), and a single wet season from April or May until October, which reaches its peak in August-September. The mean annual rainfall varies markedly from one area to another, ranging from 25 to 45 ins., with an average for the whole area of 43 ins. approx. Fluctu ations also occur from year to year in the same area and may greatly dis turb the cycle of food production.
