Food Shortages a Worry for South Sudan
This is the VOA Special English Agriculture Report.
United Nations agencies are warning of food shortages next year in South Sudan.The Food
and Agriculture Organization says the new country is likely to produce only half the food it
needs this year.The FAO blames the situation on unpredictable rains,the return of thousands
of refugees,and conflict.
In August,the FAO did a study called a rapid crop assessment.It estimated that farmers in
South Sudan could produce,at most,five hundred thousand metric tons of food this year.
South Sudan became an independent nation in July after years of civil war with the Sudanese
government in Khartoum.People in the south depended heavily on food aid during the war.
Now they are trying to produce more of their own food.
South Sudan is one of the world's poorest countries.Last month,thirty-eight agencies and aid groups wrote about the country's needs in a report for international aid.
In March,the Food and Agriculture Organization announced the results of another study,It took place in late2010.It found that farmers wanted to increase their plantings by more than sixty percent.But in some places,armed conflict interfered with clearing the land and planting the seeds.Farmers also had to deal with high fuel prices,labor problems,stolen cattle and disputes over grasslands and water sources.
Amor Almagro with the UN World Food Program says her agency has fed almost two million
people as a result of planting delays.Ms.Almagro says South Sudan has a good supply of
fertile land,but only four percent is farmed."Food security is a big concern.An estimated 1.2 million people in South Sudan could face major food shortages.Last year,the number was 970,000."she added.
