 FAO/GIEWS Special Report on Somalia July 1998 SRSom986
The agro-pastoral and pastoral populations have increased the consumption of milk and the selling of animals, but food difficulties are being experienced by those without any or with few livestock, mainly in riverine areas.
Food shortages are already reported in Hiraan region, Jowhar district in Middle Shebelle, Afgoi district in Lower Shebelle and Bardera district in Gedo.
In the Beletweyne market (Hiraan region), sorghum and maize prices have risen by one-third in three weeks, from early to late May. Higher grain prices combined with a decline in livestock prices will also adversely affect the food security of the pastoral populations.
