Highlights
• The growing season of 2015 in South Sudan started well due to early favourable rainfall, with earlier than average or timely planting across most of Western Equatoria, Greater Bahr-el-Ghazal, northern areas and Upper Nile. In Central Equatoria and some eastern areas of the country, moderate delays were noticed, but without much consequence.
• The rainfall season continued normally across the country until late June. Field reports indicate that in bimodal areas (west and southwest), first-season harvests started timely and second-season activities were underway, as rainfall remained close to average until then.
