No results found.An FAO/WFP Crop and Food Security Assessment Mission (CFSAM) visited South Sudan from 4 to 14 December 2017 to estimate the cereal production during 2017 and assess the overall food security situation. The CFSAM reviewed the findings of several Crop Assessment Missions conducted at planting and harvest time in the different agro-ecological zones of the country from May to December 2017. As during 2014, 2015 and 2016, all Assessment Missions were carried out by a Task Force Team that comprised staff from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security (MAFS), the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) and FAO. Task Force Team members have been trained during the past years to conduct rapid assessments using established protocols and techniques, such as driving and walking transects, scoring standing crops according to yield, and livestock according to body condition, perform key informant interviews and farmer case studies. In addition, supported by the FAO/AFIS Project, 39 County Crop Monitoring Committees (CCMCs) have been formed in 2016 and 2017, with a view to extending the responsibility of collecting more objective data at local level. -

Mitigating the effects of COVID-19 to protect food security and livelihoods
2020Also available in:
No results found.Years of conflict, chronic vulnerabilities and weak essential services have deteriorated the food security and livelihood situation in South Sudan. Now, the COVID-19 outbreak threatens to paralyze an already fragile food system and negatively impact more than 6.5 million people who remain vulnerable. With limited core national capacities to prevent, prepare for and respond to public health events and a weakened healthcare system, a slow-down or reduction in humanitarian assistance could be catastrophic. It is therefore critical to rapidly mobilize and pre-empt COVID-19 impacts on food security and livelihoods in South Sudan. This document outlines FAO’s aim to (i) maintain and secure existing critical humanitarian operations, while ensuring (ii) anticipatory actions are in place to safeguard livelihoods and protect the critical food supply chain as a means to mitigate the secondary effects of the pandemic.
