This document presents the highlights of an impact assessment conducted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture, Water and Land Reform, and the Office of the Prime Minister, to understand the impact of El Niño on agricultural production and livelihoods in 14 regions of Namibia. The comprehensiveassessment approach included an innovative combination of four components: crop yield forecasts using a NASA Harvest model; a household survey with 1 365 rural households interviewed across the 14 regions between May and June 2024; an agriculture sector damage and loss assessment; and a seed assessment through interviews with key informants in the seed sector.
