Kazangarare 4 Hewiyai Gvt Council Temperatures are normally comparatively low and the rainfall is consequently highly Council affective enabling afforestation, fruit and intensive livestock production to be practiced. Clinic 16 In frost-free areas plantation crops such as tea, coffee and macadamia nuts can be Lynx 1 grown, where the mean annual rainfall below 1400mm, supplementary irrigation of Clinic Private these plantation crops is required for top yields. LYNX Clinic HURUNGWE 1 23 GURUVE Region IIA - Intesive Farming : Rainfall is confined to summer and is moderately Kemutamba high (750-1000mm). Two sub-regions have been defined. Sub-region IIA receives an Rural Health Kachuta average of at least 18 rainy pentads per season and normally enjoys reliable Centre Clinic conditions, rarely experiencing severe dry spells in summer.

The farming systems, in conformity 11 with the natural conditioning factors, should therefore be based on both livestck 15 production (assisted by the production of fodder crops) and cash crops under good Chikanziwe 1 Council 2 management on soils of high available moisture potential.
