This article explores the scope for monetising food aid to set up a special fund to finance famine-relief activities in Ethiopia. In so doing, it links two issues in the counterpart fund debate: first, the desirability of selling, or 'monetising', food aid to create a counterpart fund (Maxwell 1991 and in this Bulletin, Schulthes in this Bulletin); second, the calibration of commodity aid and counterpart funds to reflect good and bad years, one of the 'neglected issues' identified by Maxwell in this volume
