Synopsis (short abstract) The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is critically dependent on the performance of its agriculture sector, which has been severely affected over the past six years by recurrent natural disasters, including droughts and floods. In 2019, FAO requires USD 10 million to assist 513 000 people. FAO aims to improve sustainable food-based approaches to help expand domestic food production so that supply levels of staple and nutritious foods are adequate to feed the population, and strengthen the resilience of cooperative farms and small-scale farmers to help contend with recurrent shocks and climate-related disaster events.

Sanctions, fuel restrictions and lack of or out-of-date machinery and equipment are worsening the humanitarian situation, stressing communities’ already limited coping capacities. Investing in the agriculture sector remains critical in 2020, as communities brace themselves for reduced yields from the 2019 main harvest.

The protracted crisis coupled with the most severe drought in decades has resulted in persisting food insecurity along with reduced agricultural production in the Syrian Arab Republic in 2018. Internally displaced people, returnees and host communities are facing large food consumption gaps, depleted coping strategies and a large food expenditure share. As food insecurity levels are expected to remain high, strengthening agricultural production is essential to ensure availability and access to food. FAO requires USD 120 million to assist 3.5 million people during from January to December 2019.
