Oxfam is looking for a capable and reliable supplier(s) for the Supply of Seed Maize "Malkassa2", Sorghum "Malkam" and Haricot beam "Awash Malkasa1" to support the humanitarian response in Somali response

CALL FOR INVITATION TO OPEN TENDER

Oxfam in Ethiopia is an international NGO working on humanitarian and long-term development programs.

Persistent drought conditions caused by climate change have worsened food security levels in the Somali region. The region experienced one of the worst droughts projected as the worst humanitarian crisis in many parts of eastern African countries/east Africa hunger crisis. The drought conditions have resulted in failure of crops, death of livestock due to pasture and water shortages, and displacements because of increasing overall food insecurity across the region particularly and the adjacent Oromia region affecting a large part of Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya generally.

The mandated offices of the agriculture and pastoral development sector have identified potential areas for crop production mainly those close to the river sides as many rivers with a course from the highlands of the adjacent areas in the Oromia region pass in the areas targeted.

After the mandated offices identified the most appropriate sites for the crop seed and farm tools distribution, the EFSVL team facilitated and establishment of the selection committee that discussed on the draft criterion along with the larger community group and ratified the criterion, and identified the eligible HHs.

Accordingly, Oxfam is looking for a capable and reliable supplier(s) for the Supply of Seed: Maize "Malkassa2", Sorghum "Malkam" and Haricot beam "Awash Malkasa1" to support the humanitarian response in Somali response.
