Context
The season dates here are strongly aligned in a south to north direction. The season begins in the south and moves up, before returning south at the end of the rainy season(s).
The season dates given here should be very similar in Togo and Ghana and even major parts of Nigeria, except for local features (hills, bodies of water, settlement patterns, etc.).
The MinAg zones are defined by seasonal weather, soils and by what is normally grown in those zones by farmers.
