The forecast for next week is a mix of rainfall, cloudy conditions and thunderstorms across the period.

These conditions may affect fieldwork, harvesting and movement around farms.

Farmers should:

- Monitor fields for waterlogging, keep drainage channels clear and watch for pests and fungal diseases favoured by wet conditions.
- Use available drier periods to harvest mature crops, and move produce promptly for proper drying and storage.
- Assess soil moisture and drainage before planting, and consider crops or varieties that can mature within the remaining rainfall period.
- Plan spraying, fertiliser application and other field activities around rainfall, as heavy rain shortly after application can reduce effectiveness.
- Keep animals and feed protected from prolonged wet conditions, and ensure shelters remain dry and well ventilated.

Weather conditions can change quickly and may differ from one location to another within Oyo State. Farmers are encouraged to pay attention to local conditions and adjust farm activities accordingly.

Thunderstorms are likely in what is predicted to be a mostly wet week across Oyo State.

To mitigate potential risks, farmers are advised to:

- Prioritise harvesting mature crops during drier windows and store produce properly.

- Ensure drainage channels remain unobstructed, particularly in areas susceptible to waterlogging or excess soil moisture.

- Apply fertiliser and pesticide during periods of lighter rainfall to minimise nutrient leaching and chemical wash-off.

- Regularly inspect crops for signs of pests or fungal infections, as sustained humidity creates an environment conducive to disease outbreaks.

- Evaluate soil conditions and drainage capacity before late-season planting, taking the remaining rainfall outlook into account.

Weather conditions can change rapidly and may vary across different zones. We recommend aligning your farm activities with observed local conditions alongside this forecast.

No August break still! The forecast for the coming week is yet more rainfall. The primary focus for farmers must remain on managing the impact of consistent, lingering moisture across fields and storage areas. Remember that forecasts may vary significantly across Oyo State. Supplement this weekly outlook with local observations to time your field operations accurately.

You should:

- Ensure drainage channels are clear to prevent waterlogging. Monitor closely for fungal diseases and pests that flourish in high humidity. Schedule spraying and fertilising for periods when it is not raining.

- Harvest mature crops at the first sign of dry weather. Move produce to secure, well-ventilated storage immediately to prevent spoilage from moisture exposure.

- Before late-season planting, verify soil drainage. Avoid low-lying, poorly drained plots and select varieties that can tolerate the remaining wet season.

- Prioritise dry bedding and clean feeding areas. Watch for signs of foot rot or respiratory issues linked to damp conditions.

Every step creates demand.
Every demand can create a business.

A successful agribusiness ecosystem is built around more than production.

Between the farm and the final consumer are multiple stages that require businesses, infrastructure, skills, technology and investment.
