Descripción
To mitigate the adverse impacts of El Niño on people’s lives and livelihoods in Nicaragua, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has received financial support from the Government of the Kingdom of Belgium, through the Special Fund for Emergency and Rehabilitation Activities. The generous contribution will enable FAO to provide staple crop and vegetable seeds along with fertilizers to farming households affected by recurrent extreme climate events over the past three years. The support provided will contribute to quickly increasing households’ availability of and access to nutritious food. Technical assistance will also be provided to help recover their agricultural livelihoods following agricultural losses due to El Niño‑induced rainfall deficits as well as to strengthen their livelihoods resilience against below-average rainfall forecasts.
