The Philippines, like Indonesia, mostly enjoy a very long humid season with ample moisture supply, interrupted locally by a short dry season around the beginning of the year. As a result, crops planted in April (for harvesting around October) rarely suffer drought conditions, the main limiting factor for crop production being solar radiation. NDVI profiles indicate that through out the season the country underwent average conditions comparable with those of previous years. According to the recent crop condition map (3.14b and c) Luzon generally enjoyed favorable conditions, in stark contrast with Mindanao.
