Following the WFP supported National Crop and Food Security Assessment conducted by the Ministry of Agriculture and Co-operatives (MoAC) in November 2006, a joint FAO/WFP Crop and Food Supply Assessment (CSFAM) is currently ongoing (from 19 March – 6 April) to assess the condition of the winter crop and develop recommendations on an appropriate national response to localized crop failures and drought. The assessment team has been visiting districts in the Mid-West, West, Central and Eastern Development Regions of the country. The next Crop Situation Update will provide a summary of the main findings.
