The power of the seasonal calendar method

This graph shows the number of cultivation tasks that take place in the rainy and the dry seasons, illuminating the complexity of agriculture including the seasonality of agricultural labour. Such information helps persons who work with farmers to understand when they have more demands on their time. For example, when the number of tasks is high, farmers need to ensure that labour is available and they themselves may not have time to participate in training programs or on-farm experiments.
