1
Identify climatic conditions of Mediterranean agriculture in Africa
Mediterranean regions (South-Western Cape and North African coast) feature winter rain and summer drought.
Crop suitability is directly governed by seasonal rainfall and temperature patterns.
2

Fruit trees with thick skins (citrus), deep-rooted vines (grapes), and winter crops (wheat) adapt best to these conditions.
These crops thrive under winter moisture and warm, sunny dry summers.
