| dc.description | This report presents the findings of an FAO Crop and Food Supply Assessment Mission to Georgia in the period 12-21 November 1999, which was fielded with logistical support of WFP. The aim of the mission was to obtain up-to-date estimates of food production in 1999, determine the major constraints to increasing food production and assess the outlook for crops and the food supply situation in the year 2000. Throughout its work, the Mission received assistance from the government, the UN organizati ons in the country, TACIS (EC Programme of Technical Assistance to CIS Countries), the World Bank and many NGOs. Agricultural production in Georgia recovered sharply in 1999, mainly the result of markedly better growing conditions for crops, some improvement in the availability of inputs (fertilizer, seed and credit), the impact of technical assistance projects and localized rehabilitation of the irrigation system. Nevertheless, far from being the motor for Georgia's economic recovery, agr iculture has performed poorly with output growning more slowly than in other sectors since 1993. Rural incomes have remained stagnant during a period of strong GDP growth. | |
