Manoah Esipisu of Reuters reports that Kenya will have a maize shortfall of seven million bags (90 kg) because of El Nino, according to Agriculture Minister Musalia Mudavadi. Production will be 22.7 million bags of maize and 3.0 million bags for the two rainy seasons. The second (shorter) rainy season crop was especially affected. Sugar, rice and wheat production were also only half of local needs. Damage to agricultural infrastructure was approximately $1.29 million, with 300,000 farming families affected by floods and by livestock disease. Coffee production will also be down. Tourism income is already down because of earlier unrest and more recent floods and cholera outbreaks (supplemented from private sources).
