Synopsis (short abstract) At the request of the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) and in collaboration with the appropriate Government agencies, an FAO assessment Mission visited Lebanon between 2 and 13 February 2020 to conduct an examination of the impact of the economic and financial crisis on the domestic agricultural sector. The Mission put forward recommendations for appropriate actions to be taken by the Government and the international community to minimize the negative impacts of the crisis on the sector as well as agricultural livelihoods and to protect the most vulnerable in the immediate term.

    Crop production: Production of wheat and barley slightly improved in 2017 compared to previous year due better rainfall and improved access to agricultural land in some areas. Livestock: Over the past two years, the herd sizes have stabilized albeit at a very low level. Displacement: About two in five people are on the move inside the country. Humanitarian access: Overall, there is an improvement in terms of humanitarian access compared to last year with some of the “besieged areas” now consider ed “hard-to-reach”. Markets: Due to the overall improved security situation and opening of supply routes, trade is slowly recovering throughout the country and urban markets appear to function well. Livelihood trends: With relatively improving trends in access and market functionality, livelihood opportunities in the formal and informal sector have slightly improved compared to the previous year. Food consumption and dietary diversity: Over 30 percent of households has a diet characterised by p oor quality and quantity. Coping strategies: Syrians apply a high degree of food coping strategies which is a signal of the stress they are facing because of food shortage. Food assistance needs: Based on the available data, the mission estimates that 6.9 million Syrians are food insecure in terms of current consumption.
