Resumen
Descripción
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, the National Statistical Institute and the Civil Protection Services, conducted an assessment to evaluate the impact of El Niño‑induced events on agricultural production and livelihoods in 11 municipalities located in Angola’s four southwestern provinces – Benguela, Cunene, Huíla and Namibe. This comprehensive assessment approach conducted in April and May 2024 included an innovative combination of four components: yield estimations using a NASA Harvest model; a household survey with a sample of 2 318 households and 200 community interviews; an agriculture sector damage and loss assessment; and a seed security assessment conducted through interviews with 15 key informants in the seed sector.
