Also available in:
While the final outcome of 1997/98 cereal crops in southern Africa still depends crucially on El Niño-related weather behaviour in the coming weeks, there is now guarded optimism about the likely outcome of the season. As of mid-March 1998, crop growing conditions have been generally favourable in most parts, with normal to above normal rainfall received since October. However, localized crop damage due to excessive rains or prolonged dry spells is reported from several parts of the sub-region. With crops still at their pollination stage, it is too early to give a definite quantitative estimate of the season’s outcome. It is possible however, to provide some preliminary indications, based on the planted areas, latest rainfall data and satellite images, crop reports from SADC Regional and National Early Warning Systems and the local mid-season assessments undertaken in countries of the sub-region with participation of FAO, WFP, USAID/FEWS, as well as UNICEF (for Mozambique) and NGOs. -
