The assessment team has been visiting districts in the Mid- West, West, Central and Eastern Development Regions of the country. The next Crop Situation Pre cipitation in Major Stations Update will provide a summary of the 700 Planting was mostly completed in main findings.
This issue of the Crop Situation Update provides an overview of the current outlook for the production of the main winter crops, wheat and barley, in 36 districts covered by the field surveillance activities of the WFP Food Security Monitoring and Analysis System.
