AFRICA: In eastern Africa, food supply prospects have improved with favourable rains over most of the region and good secondary season harvests in parts. However, food supply difficulties caused by recent drought or civil strife persist in parts. In Southern Africa, cereal production is sharply down from last year, mainly due to dry weather and reduced plantings. In the Sahel, the rainy season has just started and planting is in progress. Agricultural activities continue to be hampered by civil strife in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. |
