    Between January and March 2023, Tropical Cyclone Freddy – the most energetic cyclone on record – and Tropical Storm Cheneso battered Malawi, Madagascar and Mozambique. At the same time, Zambia experienced destructive storms and torrential rains that resulted in severe flooding, affecting large swaths of inhabited and cropped lands. Critical social and economic infrastructure, fisheries equipment, livestock and hundreds of thousands of hectares of crops have been lost. As a result of these climate shocks, the crop production, food security, nutrition and livelihoods of some of the most vulnerable households have been severely jeopardized. Urgent assistance is needed rapidly to restore agricultural production.

    On 26 May 2024, Cyclone Remal struck Bangladesh, unleashing severe floods and landslides across several districts. It was the most devastating cyclone to hit the country in over a decade, causing widespread damage to agricultural livelihoods and resulting in considerable losses to household income. In light of this situation, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations seeks to support cyclone- and flood-affected households by providing agricultural production inputs and rehabilitating rural productive infrastructures. This support is crucial to help the affected communities restore food production, rebuild their livelihoods and strengthen their resilience to withstand future shocks.
