GUIDAN IDER MARKET, NEAR KONNI, NIGER, 27TH JULY 2010: unsold cattle - the price of feed is rising & the price of animals falling. Wholesale millet prices have risen by 20% in the last month and trader say they will continue to rise because of food shortages. Animal feed has risen from 200 CFA per 100kg to 750 CFA in the past two months- a staggering 350% increase which many local farmers cannot afford. Photo by Mike Goldwater / Christian Aid
