dcterms.description | Sudan has banned exports of its staple food sorghum because of a drop in sorghum reserves and an expected fall in output in 2000. Farmers in al-Gedaref, the main producer state, reported in mid-2000 that insects and pests sorghum midges, rats, birds and grasshoppers had consumed almost three-quarters of the crop and that rainfall has been below average. FAO estimates that the harvest for 2000, due in November and December, will amount to 2.35 million tonnes, 45% below the previous year. | en |
