Hungry families now eat ambaz, oilseed cake normally fed to livestock.

A malwa of millet costs 20,000 Sudanese pounds, and incomes here have vanished entirely.

War has cut roads and stripped farmers of seed, aid workers said, while the rainy season deepens the region’s isolation.

An aid team brought food for 100 families and found 1,000 waiting.
