During the rainy season, farmers should focus on crops that thrive with adequate moisture and benefit from the natural irrigation. Below are key crops to prioritize: *Rainy Season-Friendly Crops:* 1. *Maize (Corn)* – Fast-growing and loves moisture. 2. *Rice* – Ideal for areas with heavy rainfall or wetlands. 3. *Sorghum & Millet* – Drought-tolerant but also do well with moderate rains. 4. *Cassava* – Root crop that establishes well with early rains. 5. *Yam* – Requires well-drained mounds and plenty of rainfall. 6. *Groundnut (Peanut)* – Grows well with early to mid-rainfall. 7. *Soybeans* – Great for rotation and does well in moist conditions. 8. *Vegetables*: - Okra - Ugu (fluted pumpkin) - Amaranth - Cucumber - Waterleaf 9. *Cowpea (Beans)* – Prefers lighter rainfall; plant towards end of season. 10. *Plantain/Banana* – Thrive with steady moisture and humidity. *Tip:* Always consider your soil type and rainfall pattern. Start with crops early in the season that need more time to mature, and transition to short-cycle ones as rains taper off. Learning with *@agri_farms21*🥦🍉🍋
