Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureNortheastern Nigeria: Adamawa, Borno and Yobe states. Response overview (November 2023) 2023
Also available in:
No results found.The latest Cadre Harmonisé analysis (November 2023) indicate that over 26.5 million are projected to be in high acute food insecurity (June-August 2024) across 26 states analysed in Nigeria and in the Federal Capital Territory, including 4.38 million in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe, if appropriate assistance is not provided. Protracted armed conflict, insecurity, climates shocks such as floods and dry spells, record high food and agricultural input prices, impact of fuel subsidy removal and the devaluation of the local currency are still the main drivers of the deteriorating food security and nutrition situation in northeastern Nigeria. Urgent funding is required to provide life-saving emergency agricultural support, tailored to the needs and preferences of the affected people, during the current dry season, as well as to begin the procurement of seeds and other inputs in time for the next year’s rainy season. Most crisis-affected households in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe are smallholder farmers who depend on agriculture for their livelihoods. Providing them with essential inputs is fundamental to the humanitarian response. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureNortheastern Nigeria: Adamawa, Borno and Yobe states
Response overview (April 2022)
2022Also available in:
No results found.The ongoing armed conflict in northeastern Nigeria as well as increased prices of food items and agricultural inputs have continued to negatively affect food security and nutrition in the region. Most farmers have reported production difficulties, mainly to access fertilizers, during the last rainy season, leading to reduced cultivated cropland area and harvests across five states, including in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe. The latest Cadre Harmonisé analysis (March 2022), which was conducted in 21 out of Nigeria's 36 states and in the Federal Capital Territory, indicated that about 19.5 million people are projected to experience crisis or worse levels of food insecurity (June–August 2022), if immediate actions are not taken. The provision of agricultural inputs to the most vulnerable households remains critical to ensure their food security and nutrition. FAO in collaboration with its partners has been implementing various interventions, including support for livestock and crop production, as well as value chain development and aquaculture to mitigate risks linked to seasonal crop failures and other climate-related shocks, to diversify households’ livelihoods and income sources. Beneficiaries are also provided with fuel-efficient stoves to mitigate risks linked to malnutrition, protection, deforestation, health and communal tensions over natural resources. -

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookPicturing progress – Four betters in focus 2025This commemorative volume marks the 80th anniversary of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), tracing its journey from a founding conviction – that hunger is not inevitable – to today’s global mission of transforming agrifood systems. Through a rich collection of photographs and narratives, the book illustrates how FAO works alongside farmers, fishers, scientists, governments, Indigenous Peoples, youth and civil society to advance sustainable solutions that nourish both people and planet.Organized around FAO’s vision of the four betters – better production, better nutrition, a better environment and a better life – the book highlights concrete progress: from regenerative farming and climate-smart livestock, to school feeding programmes, land restoration and inclusive digital innovation. It reflects on both the challenges and the opportunities facing agrifood systems, including climate volatility, conflict and inequality, while showing how collaboration, knowledge and innovation create pathways for resilience and hope.Arriving at a moment of reflection and renewal, this volume is both tribute and testimony: to the millions of people whose daily efforts sustain our world, and to FAO’s enduring commitment to building sustainable, inclusive and equitable agrifood systems that leave no one behind.
