“The October to February rains, which replenish pasture and water in coastal areas, have failed so far this season ... pasture [is] depleted in all coastal grazing areas of Djibouti, Tadjourah and Obock.”
Poor rains and high food prices are likely to lead to increased malnutrition rates in Djibouti, especially among poor urban households and pastoralist communities, an early warning agency has reported. via AllAfrica.com
