Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, Rome
SPECIAL REPORT FAO/WFP CROP AND FOOD SUPPLY ASSESSMENT MISSION TO ERITREA 18 January 2005 Mission Highlights • Successive years of drought and inadequate rains have seriously undermined crop and livestock production in Eritrea. • In 2004, Azmera rains (March-May), important for land preparation and replenishment of pastures, in key agricultural areas failed and the main Kremti rains (June-September) were late and ended early. • As a result, cereal production in 2004 is forecast at about 85 000 tonnes, less than half the average of the previous 12 years. • Pastoralists were seriously affected by the delayed rains, which resulted in early migration of livestock in parts. Serious feed shortages are expected in early 2005 in several parts of the country. • The cereal import requirement for 2005 is estimated at 422 000 tonnes of which about 80 000 tonnes are anticipated to be imported commercially. • With 80 000 tonnes of food aid pledged and in the pipeline, the uncovered deficit, for which international assistance is needed, is estimated at 262 000 tonnes. • In 2005, an estimated 2.3 million people, about two-thirds of the whole population - including in urban and peri-urban areas - will require food assistance to varying levels. • Timely support to crop and livestock production is urgently needed to revive production capacity in 2005. Short cycle and early maturing cereal seed varieties need to also be made available in case the apparent pattern of late rains in the last several years materialises. 1. OVERVIEW An FAO/WFP Crop and Food Assessment Mission visited Eritrea from 15 November to 3 December 2004 to estimate the 2004 main season harvest, assess the overall food supply situation and forecast import requirements for 2005, including food assistance needs. -
Eritrea's Damages Claims

Compensation can only be awarded where there is eidence sufficient in the circumstances to establish the extent of damage caused by conduct the Commission preiously found to hae violated international law . The awards probably do not reflect the totality of damages suffered by either Party but rather the damages that could be established with sufficient certainty through aailable eidence in complex interna- tional legal proceedings between Parties with modest resources and limited time . Eidence of physical damage to buildings and infrastructure is more readily gathered and presented than eidence of the extent of injuries, including physical, economic and moral injuries, to large numbers of indiiduals . There is no sharp dis- tinction between loss of property and death or personal injury in poor countries where security of property is often vital to surial . Awards for loss or destruction of property frequently stem from serious threats to physical integrity . -
