Synopsis (short abstract) The trifecta of ongoing conflict, worst drought in decades and compounding poverty have contributed to a devolving humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan. This means limited food production and depleted agricultural assets, which is affecting the livelihoods of those most vulnerable. To restore agricultural production and protect livestock production, while strenghtening coordination, FAO requires USD 35 million to assist 1.4 million people from January to December 2019.

    Conflict, natural disasters, internal displacement and cross-border movements continue to increase food insecurity in Afghanistan. Unemployment, crop pests and natural hazards increase the vulnerability of already severely food-insecure populations, many living in hard-to-reach areas. The current drought is expected to detrimentally affect chronically food insecure farming households (approximately 2.2 million people), of which 1.4 million will become acutely food insecure and require emergency assistance over the coming months and into the next lean season. To assist 1 million people, FAO requires USD 21 million for the period January to December 2018.

    The humanitarian situation in Afghanistan is characterized by a long running conflict and increasing natural disasters, occurring in the backdrop of declining economic conditions due to erosion of livelihoods and employment opportunities. These undesirable factors are fuelling displacements, reducing access to food and agricultural production, and driving unemployment. The ability of vulnerable populations to cope with the crisis has been increasingly exhausted. In 2020, FAO aims to increase the resilience of agriculture-dependent livelihoods, while addressing the immediate acute food insecurity needs.

    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.
