In South Sudan, Tristan McConnell has been weighing up the threat of famine, after six months of fighting between the Nuer and Dinka ethnic groups, which have left crops unsown or destroyed, and livestock untended or stolen. For once, the climate has been kind - there is no drought, flooding or heatwave - but the UN is still predicting that tens of thousands may die of famine in the coming months, far more than were killed in the fighting itself. In the capital, Juba, and the town of Leer, there are disturbing signs of even harder times to come.
