dc.descriptionIn view of the late onset and poor spatial distribution of rains reported during the 1997 Masika and long rains season, a serious reduction in domestic food supplies was anticipated for the current 1997/98 marketing year (June/May). It was envisaged that food supplies from the 1998 secondary Vuli crop would ease the food situation somewhat. However, since October last year the country received unprecedented rainfall, which resulted in widespread flooding and damage to the agriculture sector and infrastructure, particularly the transport system. In view of these developments and ongoing food supply concerns, the Government requested an FAO/WFP Crop and Food Supply Assessment Mission to assess the outcome of the 1998 Vuli crop, review early prospects for the 1998 main Masika and long rains crop and evaluate the overall food supply situation for the remaining part of the current 1997/98 marketing year to the end of May.
