GIEWS Update – Southern Africa

22 January 2019

KEY MESSAGES


·         Delayed rains and below-average precipitation since October have reduced cereal production prospects and lowered pasture yields in western areas of Southern Africa.

·         Rains picked up in late December across most of the subregion, partly alleviating moisture deficits.
