    National cereal balance 2020/21 marketing year (July/June)
    2020

    Favourable weather, coupled with improved security conditions, led to an upturn in cereal production in 2020. Despite a well-above-average wheat harvest, after accounting for anticipated Government imports and food assistance, an uncovered gap between total availability and utilization is expected during the 2020/21 marketing year (July/June). Ample domestic production of barley is likely to be sufficient to cover domestic feed and seed needs in the 2020/21 marketing year (July/June).

    Drought curbs 2021 production prospects, heightening the risk of a sharp deterioration in food insecurity
    2021
    Also available in:

    Significant rainfall deficits in the southern regions have caused a decline in the area planted to staple foods and led to poor vegetation conditions in cropped areas, curbing production expectations in 2021. The foreseen production decline would follow several consecutive years of below-average harvests and would likely trigger an increase in the prevalence and severity of food insecurity, with several districts already nearing critical levels of severe acute malnutrition. The adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have further heightened households’ vulnerability to food insecurity.
