Descripción
This document presents the highlights of an impact assessment conducted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, and the Mozambique Vulnerability Assessment Committee to understand the impact of El Niño on agricultural production and livelihoods in fourteen districts across Mozambique. The comprehensive assessment approach included an innovative combination of four components: maize yield forecasts using a NASA Harvest model; a household survey with 1 991 households interviewed across the seven provinces in April 2024; an agriculture sector damage and loss assessment using FAO Corporate Methodology; and a commercial sector seed assessment conducted through interviews with key informants in the seed sector.
