The Badewacho-Alaba Maize Livelihood Zone includes part of Alaba Special Woreda and most of Badawacho Woreda.
The information presented refers to the consumption year from July 2003 to June 2004, which was a relatively average year by local standards (i.e. a year that was neither especially good nor especially bad in terms of food security, when judged in the context of recent years). Provided there are no fundamental and rapid shifts in the economy, the information in this profile is expected to remain valid for approximately five years (i.e. until 2010).
