FAO/GIEWS - Foodcrops and Shortages 06/02 - TOGO (3 June)
First rains were received in the south and the centre in early March, allowing land preparation and planting of the first maize crop. They progressed to the north in April and permitted planting of millet and sorghum.
Following an average cereal harvest in 2001, estimated at about 0.7 million tonnes, the overall food situation is satisfactory.
