iciHaiti - Agriculture : The price of rice above the five-year average 30/09/2018 08:21:59
Precipitation has, however, favored the development of the July and August plantations (maize and beans), most of which are in heading, fruiting or flowering stages. Congo peas, millet, and roots and tubers are growing (except in the North, Northeast and West). In the lower Artibonite, rice harvests have started and will continue until December. The price of local corn fell by 6% in August, compared to July. Black pea, however, declined less steeply (2.4%), while the price of imported rice and TCS-10 (Artibonite) rice continues to increase. The prices of these products are significantly above their five-year average. From October 2018 to January 2019, some livelihood zones will remain in Stress (Phase 2 of the CPI); others, in Minimal (Phase 1). However, some households affected by drought (in the North and Northeast), if they do not fully recover from previous shocks, could be in crisis (CPI phase 3). But there is no indication that their number is sufficient to change the classification of the zones."
