Overall, poverty decreased between 1991/1992 and 1998/1999 from 5107% to 39.5%. However, these figures mask incidence of growing and deepening poverty among certain social groups and localities. Our food crop farmers, who live in the rural areas, continue to endure the most of poverty in the country, as they consitute more than 59% of the poor in the country.
