Descripción
Prices of rice, yellow maize and wheat flour have shown a decreasing trend in recent months thanks to the new harvest in March 2011. Food security was expected to improve but agencies report high prevalence of undernourishment and a situation of serious hunger. Localized food insecurity was reported due to extreme weather conditions which have constrained access to food in isolated rural communities. The government has put in place measures to support farmers' access to credit and to impro ve water infrastructure for agriculture. It has also assisted people requiring food assistance in areas hit by the cold waive.
