The earthquake hit the west and the south of Haiti but the catastrophe is national
It is urgent that we do this in the light of thousands of people fleeing the devastated capital Port-au-Prince for the rural areas and food prices rising
The priority is to supply them (Haiti's farmers) with seeds, fertilisers, livestock feed and animal vaccines as well as agricultural tools
