Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetEl Niño: Anticipatory Action and Response Plan, October 2023–March 2024
Mitigating the expected impacts of El Niño-induced climate extremes on agriculture and food security
2023Also available in:
No results found.The latest forecasts point to a greater than 80 percent chance of El Niño continuing through March–May 2024, following declaration of the onset of El Niño conditions in early July 2023 by the World Meteorological Organization. The strength is expected to be comparable to the top six strongest events in recorded history, increasing the likelihood of extreme weather and climate hazards, ranging from drought to floods and storms. By disrupting rainfall and temperature patterns, El Niño may strongly impact agriculture, rural livelihoods and food security. Such early warnings clearly call for early action. FAO’s El Niño Anticipatory Action and Response Plan requires urgent funding to deliver immediate support in a number of identified countries around the world, based on analysis of historical trends, latest seasonal forecasts, agricultural seasonality and the vulnerability of populations at risk. -
BookletLa Niña: Anticipatory Action and Response Plan, September–December 2024
Mitigating the expected impacts of La Niña‑induced climate extremes on agriculture and food security
2024Also available in:
No results found.Following the 2023−2024 El Niño event and the current El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) neutral state, La Niña (ENSO cool phase) is anticipated to come into effect between September and November withwith probabilities ranging from 55 to 71 percent, and is expected to persist through January to March 2025. La Niña can increase the likelihood of extreme weather and climate hazards such as droughts, floods, excessive rainfall and cyclones. These early warnings signal the need for anticipatory action to help vulnerable farming communities mitigate the potential effects of La Niña, especially in regions where the compounded effects from the 2023−2024 El Niño event and La Niña might materialize. FAO’s La Niña Anticipatory Action and Response Plan requires urgent funding to deliver immediate support in a number of identified countries around the world, based on analysis of historical trends, latest seasonal forecasts, agricultural seasonality and the vulnerability of populations at risk. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHonduras: Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan 2024 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Honduras is experiencing a multifaceted crisis, mainly due to widespread violence, climate extremes and forced population movements. These shocks are disrupting vulnerable communities’ ability to produce food, particularly in drought-prone regions and in transit areas with limited resources, generating tensions between host families and displaced people. With 19 percent of the population analysed projected to be acutely food insecure, providing time-sensitive agricultural support to vulnerable households helps them to restore their livelihood and increase their self-reliance.
