    Cereal prices significantly increased between August and December 2010, reflecting world price trends. In December 2010, the international FAO Food Price Index was slightly above the peak reached during the 2007-08 food price crisis. Households and communities affected by floods last summer are slowly recovering with assistance from partners. The final estimate for cereal production in 2010 is 2.46 mln tonnes, well above the preliminary figures. This is respectively 13% and 8% above the 20 09 level and the 2005-09 average level. Cereal imports for 2010 amounted to 14 thousand tonnes, 8% below 2009 level, and much below the 2005-09 average.

Agencies are seriously concerned over the extremely alarming food security conditions throughout the country. Different UN agencies have continued providing assistance to the conflict affected population.
