    In 2023, access to food emerged as the most pressing need for people in the Niger, where the impact of climate change and armed conflict continue to drive acute food insecurity. Around 80 percent of the population live in rural areas, relying on agriculture for their livelihoods. Investing in this sector is cost effective and not only addresses immediate food needs but also ensures long-term resilience. A USD-124 market gardening kit yields up to ten times its value in vegetables, helping families to quickly produce their own food and generate income.

    The Niger continues to face a complex humanitarian crisis, mainly due to civil insecurity, severe flooding and spillover effects from the conflicts in Burkina Faso, Mali and Nigeria, including cross-border population movements. A decline in agricultural and livestock production, including due to animal theft and inaccessible pastures, continues to drive acute food insecurity and malnutrition. With 80 percent of the population living in rural areas and relying on agriculture for their livelihoods, FAO's production support enables vulnerable communities to address immediate food needs while strengthening their resilience.
