Acknowledgements Acknowledgements The Darfur Seed System Security Assessment was conducted with full financial support from the European Commission Directorate-General for Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection and technical support from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Emergency Rehabilitation and Coordination Unit (ERCU) in Sudan and Rome. We acknowledge the ERCU initiative in search of a better understanding of seed system security, as well as their efforts in bringing on board all the key stakeholders. Special thanks go to Marc Abdala, Emmanuel Lujuo, Jimmy Owani, Salaheldin Mohamed, Tariq Mustafa, Sajjad Noor, Mulugeta Behailu, Belihu Negesse and all the FAO field personnel for organizing and coordinating the assessment. Thanks to the Federal Government of Sudan, the Ministry of Agriculture and in particular, the Undersecretary, Mr Jubbara, along with the technical team from Seed Administration, Mr Hashin Hassan Eltayib and Mr Ahmed Abdala; appreciation is also extended to representatives from the State Ministry of Agriculture (SMOA) from the three Darfur states, Abdelrahim Salih (North Darfur), Babiker Hassan Adam (East Darfur) and Tarig Elbah (East Darfur), who gave strong support to the assessment at the initial stage of the scoping mission. The secondary data provided by the Seed Administration staff gave a better understanding of the operation of the formal seed production system in Sudan. Without the participation of members of the Food Security and Livelihoods Cluster and the SMOA in all three Darfur states, the assessment would have been nearly impossible. We highly appreciate the financial, logistical and human resources provided by Darfur Developmental and Reconstruction Agency, Cooperazione Internazionale, Relief International, World Vision, AFAG, American Refugee Committee, Agriculture Research Station, MADAR, INTERSOS and Catholic Relief Services. Last but not least, we would like to thank all those who spared their valuable time to provide us with all the necessary information (primary and secondary data) that enabled us to compile this report. Most notable are the 725 individual households, 99 grain/seed vendors, 9 agro-input dealers, 12 community members, many agroprocessors and all the key informants. Your contributions are highly appreciated. This work is strongly based on the concepts and guidelines of the publication “When disaster strikes: a guide to assessing seed system security” (Sperling, 2008). The tools used during the assessment as well as the structure of the report are mainly those elaborated for the Seed System Security Assessment in Southern Sudan by Louise Sperling (CIAT). 3 Seed System Security Assessment, Darfur Region Foreword The Darfur Seed System Security Assessment (SSSA) report aims to provide the reader with the following: t insight into seed system security scenarios; t processes and methods used; t a clear picture of past and current situations; and t opportunities and actions that may be undertaken to improve the current situation. The report comprises seven main chapters. Chapter I provides background information on the seed security concept and on current options for seed-related response. Chapter II introduces the SSSA methodology and reviews the methods actually used in Sudan, including the rationale for the choice of sites. Chapter III summarizes the context of the assessment, identifying socio-political and economic progress, health trends and the food security situation. It also gives an overview of agriculture and crop production and reviews food and seed-related assistance during the last five to ten years. Chapter IV describes the functioning of the seed system in Sudan by reviewing both the formal and informal sectors. It reviews the past and current formal plant breeding structures and processes, and how the formal seed production has been organized in the past and present, with specific reference to Darfur. It provides an extensive section describing how decentralized seed multiplication and distribution unfolds in Darfur. Chapter V is the heart of the field findings and presents the current seed security situation in Darfur. It a) reviews the major crop types and varieties being grown; b) looks at issues related to seed availability, access, and quality (for 2010 and also projecting to 2011) at household level; c) reviews the functioning of the local grain/seed markets and agro-input dealers in improving availability, access and quality of grain for seed, as well as d) suggests alternative sources of quality vegetable seed and other agro-inputs. 4 Chapter VI focuses on agroprocessing that could indirectly stimulate demand for increased production of specific crop varieties. It also reviews other related opportunities in support of income generation and agricultural development. Chapter VII presents the overall conclusion and recommendations. These are intended to lead to specific actions in a range of areas of agricultural research, seed security interventions and agro- enterprise development for improved food security and livelihoods.

    SUDAN Food Security Outlook Update April 2017 Food security continues to deteriorate in South Kordofan and Jebel Marra KEY MESSAGES By March/April 2017, food insecurity among IDPs and poor residents in Food security outcomes, April to May 2017 SPLM-N areas of South Kordofan and new IDPs in parts of Jabal Mara in Darfur has already deteriorated to Crisis (IPC Phase 3) and is likely to deteriorate to Emergency (IPC Phase 4) by May/June through September 2017 due to displacement, restrictions on movement and trade flows, and limited access to normal livelihoods activities. Influxes of South Sudanese refugees into Sudan continued in March and April due to persistent conflict and severe acute food insecurity in South Sudan. As March 31, more than 85,000 South Sudanese refugees have arrived into Sudan since the beginning of 2017, raising total number arrived to nearly 380,000 South Sudanese refugees since the start of the conflict in December 2013. Following above-average 2016/17 harvests, staple food prices either remained stable or started increases between February and March, particularly in some arid areas of Darfur and Red Sea states, and South Source: FEWS NET Kordofan, which was affected by dryness in 2016. Prices remained on Projected food security outcomes, June to September average over 45 percent above their respective recent five-year 2017 average. Terms of trade (ToT) between livestock and staple foods prices have started to be in favor of cereal traders and producers since January 2017. CURRENT SITUATION Staple food prices either remained stable or started earlier than anticipated increases, particularly in the main arid and conflicted affected areas of Darfur, Red Sea and South Kordofan states between February and March.

  • Protection Situation Update Sudan, October 2020 the Overall Security Situation Remained Relatively Stable in the Camps, Return A
    Protection situation update Sudan, October 2020 The overall security situation remained relatively stable in the camps, return and conflict affected areas of Darfur, Kordofan and Kassala states, however, unpredictable with current concerns due to the dynamic security environment. Sporadic violence and clashes in some areas continue to cause human casualties, displacement, damage to houses and belongings of population, thus creating high vulnerability. During October, a total of 27 protection incidents have been recorded including: twelve cases of generalized violence, eleven cases of Armed attack, two cases of abduction and two cases of intercommunal armed conflict. Major concerns include: Central Darfur - In Hamedia, Khamsa Daqeq and Hasahisa camps IDPs expressed their concerns about their physical safety and protection following UNAMID withdrawal. Specifically, they referred to the presence of armed nomads, occupation of their lands in areas of origin and inability of the GoS to protect them as the nomads are not part of the Juba peace agreements and like in the past enjoying impunity. - In Toga and Sabanga areas of Jabal Mara, IDP women are risking their physical wellbeing outside the area of displacement during the farming or firewood collection period due the presence if illegal armed groups and individuals. Additionally, all the IDPS further suffer from movement restrictions caused by the presence of SLA Mubarak Alduk faction. It was further reported by the IDPs that approximately 40 persons were killed in Daya and surrounding villages due to fighting between SLA/AW and SLA/Mubarak Alduk. They also reported 15 rape cases prior to displacement and three more during displacement allegedly committed by SLA/Mubarak Al Duk in the same location.

  • Patterns of Economic Growth and Poverty in Sudan
    Journal of Economics and Sustainable Development www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1700 (Paper) ISSN 2222-2855 (Online) Vol.7, No.2, 2016 Patterns of Economic Growth and Poverty in Sudan Adam Hessain Yagoob 1 Zuo Ting 2 (1,2) College of Humanities and Development Studies, China Agricultural University, Beijing, China (1) International Poverty Reduction Center in China (IPRCC) Abstract This paper reviewing the economic growth in real terms and have overlook to poverty levels and incidence in Sudan. However, more focus is given to per capita income, since the relation is always observed between poverty levels and per capita income growth. Furthermore, the sectoral contribution to GDP growth also reviewed, to see where income concentrates did? And what was the effect on poverty situation? Sudan was expected to achieve high rates of growth after independence due to vast and rich agricultural land, considerable livestock component as well as capable human resources. However, that do not realized for greatest part of the last five decades. After, enjoying moderate rates of growth and economic stability till 1975, Sudan began to enter into deep structural problems. Sudan’s GDP grew at a trend rate of 2 % while the population was growing at around 2.8 % per annum. This has resulted in reducing the real per capita GDP by 11 % over the fourteen years period affecting the poverty situation in the whole country. Meanwhile, the causes of rural poverty in Sudan are to be found in the sustained urban bias of the development strategies adopted since independence. This tended to neglect the traditional agricultural sector where the vast majority of population lives and is the main source of rural livelihood.
