Harvest has started in some areas of Kenya and neighboring countries, including Uganda, Rwanda, and Burundi. In Kenya, pasture and surface water conditions are generally favorable, particularly in pastoral regions. However, concerns are rising due to severe rainfall deficits in June.

This has led to moisture stress in some cropping zones, including parts of Kenya and Uganda. Further details on the situation are available from the East Africa Seasonal Monitor report, which provides more information on the current conditions and forecast for the region.
