Rainfall:a minimum of 2000mm per year

Altitude:2000 mm above sea-level

Profittable Varieties:Bila=mai variety, Mai-shibe varieties, Mt. Elgon varieties e.t.c.

1. Weeding
• By slashing
• By uprooting
• By use of herbicides
• By good field hygiene
2. Mulching
1. To conserve soil moisture and warmth.
2. To reduce the speed of run-offs hence minimise soil erosion.
3. To improve soil fertility as mulch can decompose to form humus.
4. To smoother weeds hence effectively reduce weeed-crop cimpetion for nutrients, space, sunlightt e.t.c.
3. Thinning
the practice of removing overcrowned crops so as to achieve optimum plant population.
4. Gapping
The practice of replacing dead, diseased, failed-germination seeds for iptimal plant growth
