Sudan Price-Driven Famine
A Sudanese report warned that famine could worsen and bakeries could be forced to close, after the price of an ardeb of sorghum surpassed two million Sudanese pounds and a sack of flour reached 200,000 pounds, amid a slowdown in the crop market in the city of Gedaref. Farmers and traders attributed the price increases to the currency’s declining value, while the authorities are struggling to buy crops for the strategic reserve and bakery owners fear they will be unable to afford flour. This comes amid the war that has continued since April 2023, which has killed at least 59,000 people and displaced around 13 million, while more than 30 million people need humanitarian assistance.
