An FAO/WFP Crop and Food Supply Assessment Mission visited southern Sudan from 10 October to 3 November 1999 and northern Sudan from 24 November to 13 December to estimate the 1999 cereal production and to make an early forecast of wheat production from areas now being planted. The Mission was able to visit 24 out of the 26 States in both Government and rebel-held areas. Based on these production estimates and an estimate of carryover stocks, the Mission assessed the overall cereal supply situat ion, including food aid needs for the 1999/2000 marketing year (November/October). The Mission benefited from the full co-operation of the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and the Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC), with both assigning senior staff to accompany the Mission. Pre-harvest area and yield forecasts were provided by State Ministries of Agriculture which the Mission cross checked during field surveys and farmer and trader interviews. Discussions were also held with key informants fr om local government administrations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) including ACCORD, Sudan Red Crescent, German Agro Action, Action Contre le Faim, Care International, Oxfam, and from UNDP and UNICEF. -

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.
