YEMEN: Why malnutrition could get worse

ABU DHABI, 1 November 2011 (IRIN) - The political upheaval in Yemen has made it harder for ordinary people to find enough food to eat, raising the prospect of increasing malnutrition, a top official in the Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation said.

“With the problems Yemen is facing right now, there have been big challenges,” Abdulmalik Althawr, deputy minister for the agricultural production development sector, told IRIN on the sidelines of a UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) meeting in Abu Dhabi on 27 October.
