"The UN is cutting in half its daily rations in Sudan's Darfur region because of a severe funding shortfall (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4954096.stm) .............."
....
"From May the ration will be half the minimum amount required each day. The cut comes as the UN said Darfur's malnutrition rates are rising again.

Nearly 3m people in Darfur depend on food aid after being driven off their land in three years of conflict."
