No Thumbnail AvailableBook (stand-alone)FAO/WFP CROP AND FOOD SUPPLY ASSESSMENT MISSION TO ETHIOPIA - 26 January 2000 2000
Also available in:
The FAO/WFP Crop and Food Supply Assessment Mission for 1999 was conducted in two parts, with two different time frames and two counterpart agencies. The findings of both assessments are combined into this one Special Report. The first and larger exercise was that carried out by WFP/Disaster Prevention and Preparedness Commission (DPPC) between 6 November and 31 December. This involved 20 teams (comprising staff of DPPC, WFP and other donors) visiting all the zones in the country and a high prop ortion of the food deficit woredas. The aim was to assess both the chronic and current vulnerability of local populations to food insecurity, and to quantify the amounts of food aid required during the year 2000. The analysis of the results of this survey was completed by early January 2000. The second part of the Mission was a crop survey conducted by FAO with assistance from MoA during the period of 18 to 30 November 1999. Its remit was to finalize the main season cereal and pulse production e stimates for 1998 and to prepare production forecasts for 1999. The forecasts were developed at zonal level and aggregated to give a national picture of cereal and pulse availability for 2000, together with an estimate of national import requirements. The FAO/MoA team reported its preliminary findings to Government and donors on 6-7 December 1999. -

Also available in:
An FAO/WFP Crop and Food Supply Assessment Mission visited Ethiopia from 12 November to 13 December 2000 to estimate the production of the meher season cereal and pulse crops, forecast the 2001 belg season, assess food aid needs and identify broad classifications of beneficiaries and delivery mechanisms. This mission follows a particularly severe year with regard to food insecurity in Ethiopia, and the Horn in general, which necessitated a special regional humanitarian intervention, coordinated by the UN. In November 2000, six teams comprising two international consultants and four national consultants from FAO plus counterpart specialists from the Ministry of Agriculture visited all but four zones in the country. WFP joined two of these teams. Over a longer period, 22 teams comprising members from Disaster Prevention and Preparedness Commission (DPPC), WFP and other UN agencies, bilateral donor agencies and NGOs visited all regions, concentrating on the more vulnerable zones and woredas to determine the current and prospective situation regarding household food security. These two complementary assessment exercises overlapped in the field wherever possible.
