Senegal was due to launch an artificial rain programme July 16 to make up for inadequate rainfall in the West African nation.
Director of Senegal's National Meteorology Agency (ANAMS), Matar Ndiaye, said the programme was being launched with the support of Morocco.
The programme targets the country's rainfall-deficit areas, namely the South-eastern and Central parts where sufficient rainfall has not been recorded since the beginning of the current rainy season in May.
He however disclosed that the Northern part of Senegal had recorded a normal rainfall pattern this year.
