- Food security generally improves, although the number of food vulnerable people in Southern Sudan may vary depending on how civil security conditions develop during the post-referendum period

- In the North, sorghum and wheat prices show diverging trends

- In the South, food supplies may decrease in local markets if trade flows are disrupted by renewed civil insecurity situations following the referendum
