The Guna Highland Barley and Potato and Sheep livelihood zone is small, covering parts of E. Esite, Farta, Lay Gayint and Simada woredas in South Gonder.
The information presented refers to October 2005-September 2006, a relatively good year by local standards (i.e. a year of above average production and rural 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 2011).
