There is recommended weeks for crop planting to the side.
According to the crop model based forecast, planting cassava during the first week of August in Tafea is projected to highest yield across the country. Yield is higher than last year, higher than the 10-year and 5-year average yield.
Farming Advisory
Nutrient Stress (applicable to all seasons for all crops)
- Apply compost. Incorporate organic matters into the soil
- Apply organic mulch around the crop. Mulching helps conserve moisture, suppress weed growth, and it gradually release nutrients into the soil as the organic matter decomposes
- Practice crop rotation (e.g Mucuna-Taro rotation) and intercropping to enhance nutrient cycling and reduce the risk of nutrient depletion.
Water Stress
- Apply mulch around the crop after planting or plant directly in mulch to reduce moisture loss from the soil and regulate soil temperature.
More information can be found in the 'Decision Tree-based Advisory' tab under 'Farming Advisory' menu on OSCAR (oscar.gov.vu)

※ Please note that the crop yield forecasts provided in these Agromet Bulletins are based on crop models, and may differ from actual results due to various factor.
While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the forecasts, they are subject to inherent uncertainties and may not always be accurate or reflect actual crop yields. Actual crop yields may differ from the forecasted values due to a variety of factors including but not limited to: disease outbreaks, pest infestation, and management practices. Therefore, this information is intended for guidance purposes only and should not be relied upon as a guarantee of actual crop yields.
