Background of the Study In tropical savannah areas located at the north part of Mozambique, there are vast agricultural lands with constant rainfall, and it has potential to expand the agricultural production. However, in these areas, most of agricultural technique is traditional and farmers’ unions are weak. Therefore, it is expected to enhance the agricultural productivity by introducing the modern technique and investment and organizing the farmers’ union. Japan has experience in agricultural development for Cerrado over the past 20 years in Brazil. The Cerrado is now world's leading grain belt. The Government of Japan and Brazil planned the agricultural development support in Africa, and considered the technology transfer of agriculture for Cerrado development to tropical savannah areas in Africa. As the first study area, Mozambique is selected for triangular cooperation of agricultural development. Based on this background, Japanese mission, team leader of Kenzo Oshima, vice president of JICA and Brazilian mission, team leader of Marco Farani, chief director visited Mozambique for 19 days from September 16, 2009.

Anaemia is a public health problem in mothers and preschool children in Mozambique and up to 40% of these cases are probably due to dietary iron deficiency. The World Health Organization (WHO) and Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) recognize the fortification of foodstuff as an effective method to remedy dietary deficiencies of micronutrients, including iron. Cassava mahewu, a non-alcoholic fermented beverage is prepared at subsistence level from cassava roots using indigenous procedures. The aim of the study was to standardize mahewu fermentation and investigate if the type of cassava fermented, or the iron compound used for fortification affected the final product.

From February through March, most of the south is Stressed! (IPC Phase 2!) while most of the central semiarid zone is in Crisis (IPC Phase 3) as the lean season ends. In these areas, the 2020/2021 harvest beginning in April, will improve food security outcomes to Stressed (IPC Phase 2) or Minimal (IPC Phase 1). Households impacted by tropical storm Chalane and cyclone Eloise face Stressed (IPC Phase 2) and Crisis (IPC Phase 3) outcomes, with affected households likely to recover through post-flood production if they have enough seeds to replant. In Cabo Delgado, the conflict is continuing to drive displacement and Crisis (IPC Phase 3) outcomes. • Following a rapid increase in confirmed COVID-19 cases and deaths since January 1, 2021, the government has tightened containment measures, including implementing a 9 pm to 4 am curfew for the greater Maputo area.

By last weekend, registration had still not started in some places. Election officials blame outside contractors, plus their own delayed planning and poor conservation of computer equipment. Registration is done with a neat system which fits in a briefcase. It has a camera and fingerprint reader, computer for data input (now being called the “móbil ID”), and a printer to produce voters cards with picture, fingerprint, voters number, and other details. The card is then sealed in plastic. But one or another part of the system collapsed in many places – computers, batteries and generators did not work, and the plastic to seal the cards was not delivered. João Leopoldo da Costa, president of the National Elections Commission (CNE), stresses that the CNE expected to register fewer than 500,000 people, and thus the six week registration period should provide sufficient time, even if registration brigades were unable to work for some periods.
