A crop and food supply assessment report on Ethiopia issued Friday night by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization and the World Food Programme finds the East African country, which has faced serious food crises in past decades, can expect better crop yields this year.

The joint report attributes the improved yields (afgrøder) to more land area being cultivated, well-distributed rainfall on crops and higher financial returns to grain growers prompting increased investment in inputs as well as wider availability of fertilizers and improved seeds and credit.
