Resumen
Descripción
Since 1996 it had been impossible for FAO/GIEWS to carry out an on-the-spot assessment of the food supply situation in Liberia due to security reasons. With improved security following the installation of an elected government, GIEWS was able to field a short fact-finding mission to the country in mid-December 1998 to estimate food production in 1998 and forecast the cereal supply position for 1999 (January/December). Two officers, one from the Ministry of Agriculture and the other from the FAO Representation, were assigned to assist the Mission. Discussions were held with relevant Government officials, UN Agencies and NGOs, and limited field visits were made to inspect crop conditions.
