iciHaiti - Climate : Haiti hit by the worst drought in 35 years
Haiti is experiencing one of the worst droughts in 35 years, made worse by the El Niño event. According to the Famine Early Systems Network (FEWS NET), supported by US Agency for International Development (USAID) globally, severe dryness due to the 2015 El Niño resulted in national crop production that was less than 50% of the five-year average, while local food prices remain above average.

From now through June-July 2016, communes in Sud-Est, Ouest, Nord-Ouest, upper Artibonite, Centre, Nord-Est Departments and on the Southern Peninsula will remain in Crisis (IPC level 3) food insecurity, signifying that households may suffer high or above usual acute malnutrition or deplete their livelihood assets to meet minimum food needs.
