Mozambique's Food Security Success Story

  • SIMA, Technical Team

Abstract

The rapid progress the country has made in the past three to four years is based on more than the ending of the war; policy choices made prior to the peace accords created the conditions for rapid recovery once hostilities ceased. The key policy changes related to general food marketing policy, and to specific polices on the monetization of yellow maize food aid.
