because the rainfall is usually lower in these regions.
Rainfall has continued to decrease at the national level and has been
erratic in the Eastern part of the country.
Agricultural production is to be closely monitored, especially in the
Eastern region.
Food commodity prices decreased by 4 percent at national level in the first fortnight of December in relation
