FEWS Tanzania Food Security Report 22 Dec 2003 - Drought relief needs only partly met |
|
Monday, July 19, 2004 by
Admin |

Wholesale maize prices in urban markets have either stabilized at higher levels or kept on increasing in other markets. The food security outlook is not promising because plans to mitigate the effects of drought are not yet fully implemented, a problem compounded by the failure of the vuli rains.... |
