    As the Syrian war enters its seventh year, food production remains at a record low. Hunger is rampant and deepening across the country with over half the population unable to meet their daily food needs. Food scarcity and high food prices are particularly problematic in areas experiencing large population changes. In Deir-ez-Zor and Madaya, food security has worsened following an increase in conflict and constrained market availability. To confront food shortages, affected populations – particul arly displaced households – continue to adopt negative coping strategies, such as reducing the number of meals or restricting consumption by adults so children can eat.
