In the coming third dekad of October 2025, favorable moisture conditions are expected during the second rainy season (Bega) in the Borena, East Borena, West Guji, and Guji zones, Sidama regional zones, southern and southeastern parts of the Somali Regional State, and the southern zones of the Southern Ethiopia Regional State. In addition, the western and southwestern parts of the country, which have been receiving rain since the Kiremt season, will continue to experience rainfall. This situation will create favorable conditions for meeting the water requirements of Bega season crops in the highlands of Borena and Guji, and ensure the availability of pasture and drinking water, thereby improving animal feed resources. The enhanced moisture will also provide a good opportunity for rainwater collection and storage.
