It is clear that at the beginning of the rainy season, the time distribution of the rainfall is very irregular. Enough long dry periods are regularly observed and when rainfalls are registered, their pluviometry is usually very low. If we accept that the wet period starts when at least two rainfalls with a minimum of 5 mm of pluviometry each are registered every week, then we conclude that the rainy season in Foumbot and surroundings begins at May. Thus, by this period, farmers should start their agricultural activities.
