Synopsis (short abstract) In the Niger, persistent conflict, droughts, floods and increased staple food prices have aggravated vulnerable households’ food insecurity. Internal displacement in the country has increased by 32 percent over the last year due to active terrorist groups in certain areas. People urgently need agricultural support. Around 80 percent of the Niger’s population lives in rural areas, relying on the food they produce and sell to provide for their families.

    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.

    Niger: Humanitarian Needs Overview and Response Plan 2024 2024
    Also available in:
    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.

    Burkina Faso: Humanitarian Response Plan 2023 2023
    Also available in:
    In Burkina Faso, over 16 percent of the population is expected to be in high acute food insecurity during this year’s lean season, if appropriate assistance isn’t provided. This will include, for the first time, 19 867 people in Catastrophe (IPC Phase 5). Around 4 in 5 people rely on agriculture for subsistence, and need urgent support to restore food production. Every USD 1 spent on supporting farmers with a vegetable production package yields over 20 times its value in cabbages, onions and tomatoes.
