This is on the main man made. Countries like Eritrea despite being located in more arid area and with almost no aid is coping admirably.
In case of Ethiopia, the gov. was blindly obsessed with the insurgency campaign in the south, despite numerously being warned about this disaster, it chose to threaten the aid agencies, and as reported in the NY Times, food is being used deliberately as a starvation tool, and being used to feed the soldiers instead.
