The survey covered all departments in Guatemala and Haiti, and reached a total of 7 619 households. The data are representative at department level.FAO established the DIEM-Monitoring system in June 2020. In 29 of the world’s most food-insecure countries, DIEM-Monitoring enumerators collect data at household level on shocks, agricultural livelihoods, food security and needs several times a year through computer-assisted telephone interviews and face-to-face surveys. This regularly collected and granular data is easily accessible in the form of dashboards, maps, briefs and aggregated data on the DIEM Hub, enabling partners and stakeholders to trigger immediate mitigation and response actions.

    Agriculture is an increasingly vital lifeline for people in Haiti. Rising insecurity and low harvests have pushed food prices up. The violence is disrupting markets, supply chains, local food availability and access, and the safe movement of people and goods. Over 75 percent of Haiti’s most food-insecure people are in rural areas. They need urgent supplies to continue producing food for their families and community. Boosting vulnerable farming families’ agricultural and livestock production increases their self-reliance and strengthens their resilience against future shocks.

    Guatemala’s humanitarian crisis is mainly driven by climate-induced disruptions to agricultural production and increased human mobility. In the country’s Dry Corridor, families are facing increasing challenges due to the effects of the El Niño phenomenon. The recurring loss of staple crops like maize and beans threatens their livelihoods and food security. Households spend up to 75 percent of their income on food. Providing vulnerable communities with climate-smart agricultural support enables them to quickly produce food while strengthening their resilience against future shocks.
