The situation in Chad is alarming. Floods in 2024, combined with pest attacks, destroyed nearly 14 percent of cultivated areas, threatening to worsen food insecurity and malnutrition well before the lean season. In 2025, persistent insecurity, climate shocks and population movements will continue to hamper the recovery of vulnerable households. Emergency agricultural assistance will be crucial to enable them to feed themselves once their stocks are depleted and to safeguard their livelihoods. -

Also available in:
No results found.Ethiopia faces major humanitarian challenges, mainly driven by climate and economic shocks, armed conflict and food chain threats. These challenges are underlined by economic and physical constraints that hinder access to key food commodities, even when adequate production has been achieved at the national level. As a result, 13 million people are in dire need of agricultural assistance. Restoring livelihoods is fundamental to the humanitarian response, as over 80 percent of Ethiopians live in rural areas and rely on agriculture to feed and provide for themselves.Every USD 1 spent on safeguarding lives and livelihoods saves USD 7 in food assistance. This document provides an overview of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations' (FAO) component of the 2024 Humanitarian Response Plan for Ethiopia. FAO requires USD 175 million to assist 5.46 million people.

The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.

No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018. -
