The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has expressed grave concern about the current situation in Sudan.
Adam Venaman, deputy director of the FAO office in Sudan, warned that the conflict in Sudan is very dangerous, with cereal production down 46 percent from last year.
According to FAO, sorghum production in 2023 is estimated at three million tonnes, which is 42% lower than the previous year.
Finman said FAO’s plan to support local agriculture will begin cultivation in June 2024.
“We will need to organize ourselves to get enough resources to support during this growing season,” Feeman said, adding, “The biggest challenge is access to resources to target as many farmers in need of support as possible.”
FAO aims to support 1.2 million farmers and is seeking $400 million to help 9 million Sudanese citizens.
Millet production reached about 683,000 tonnes, which is 64% lower than in 2022.
Sudan requires about 5.5 to 6 million tonnes of cereals a year to meet its food needs, with central regions dependent on corn, northern regions on wheat and western regions on millet.
About 80 percent of workers in Sudan work in agriculture and herding, contributing about 32.7 percent to the $34.3 billion GDP by the end of the year, according to World Bank estimates.
