EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The continued La Niňa episode during the first half of 2011 has deteriorated the food security situation in the south and south eastern parts as well as in the belg dependent and sugum receiving areas of the country. The poor performance of short-cycle crops and deterioration of livestock body conditions and production contributed to rising malnutrition in some La Niňa affected areas. On the other hand, flooding poses a threat during the second half of 2011 with National Meteorological Agency‟s (NMA) forecast of normal to above normal kiremt rains.

Accordingly, the findings of the multi-agency assessment and monitoring results indicate that approximately 4.5 million beneficiaries require relief food assistance during July to December 2011.

The total net emergency food and non-food requirements for the period July to December 2011 amounts to USD 398,439,730. The net food requirement, including TSF needs, stands at 419,259 MT, estimated to cost around USD 329,834,684. In addition a total of USD 68,605,046 is required to respond to non-food needs of identified beneficiaries in the health and nutrition, water and sanitation and agriculture and education sectors.
