No results found.At the request of the Government of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, a joint FAO/WFP Crop and Food Security Assessment Mission (CFSAM) visited the country from 7 to 21 December 2024. The objectives of the CFSAM (henceforth referred to as the Mission) were to estimate staple food crop production in 2024, assess the impact of multiple flood events and other factors affecting the agriculture sector, determine cereal import requirements for the 2024/25 marketing year (September/August) and evaluate the severity and magnitude of acute food insecurity. The Mission identified a broad set of key measures to address the urgent needs of small-scale farmers impacted by weather hazards, providing recommendations to support a sustainable increase in small-scale farmers’ agricultural production and proposed interventions to address acute food insecurity. The Mission provides a comprehensive set of recommendations to support sustainable growth in the agriculture sector and recovery in the regions impacted by weather shocks. The Mission also outlines a number of measures to address the acute food insecurity situation. The Mission findings highlight that limited economic access among vulnerable households to meet basic needs, coupled with the impact of extreme weather events, are key drivers of acute food insecurity in the country. -

2022Also available in:
No results found.At the request of the Government of Sri Lanka, a joint FAO/WFP Crop and Food Security Assessment Mission (CFSAM) took place in June and July 2022 to analyse the country’s agricultural production in 2022, particularly of the main staple cereals, and to assess households’ food security conditions. The request was prompted by expectations of a well below agricultural output in 2022, owing to the effects of the severe macroeconomic crisis, which also pushed up food prices to record or near-record levels. This caused a significant worsening of households’ food security.
