CHAD Food Security Outlook Update February 2015 Atypical Sharp Rise in Maize Prices in the Lake Chad Region Affecting Poor Households CHAD Food Security Outlook Update February 2015 Atypical sharp rise in maize prices in the Lake Chad Region affecting poor households KEY MESSAGES Most likely estimated food security outcomes for February – March 2015 Harvests of off-season crops (flood-recession sorghum and market garden crops) are just getting underway in Sila, Guera, Batha, Mayo Kebbi, Chari Baguirmi, and Moyen Chari. These crops are bolstering the food stocks of very poor and poor households in areas with below-average rainfed crop production for 2014. Market supply is at average levels, but cereal prices in Sarh, Moundou, and Kélo are approximately 30 percent above average. In the Sahelian zone, price are also above average in N’Djamena, Abéché, and Bol, with the steepest increase is in the price of maize in Bol (81 percent). Livestock exports have been particularly limited by ongoing insecurity in Nigeria. In Kanem, Bahr el-Ghazel, Guera, and Sila, poor and very poor households’ cereal food stocks are low, limiting their food consumption. As a result, these households will face Source: FEWS NET Stressed (IPC Phase 2) acute food insecurity outcomes in Most likely estimated food security outcomes for February and March. Without assistance, poor households April – June 2015 in Lake Chad region would likely be at least one phase worse. The atypical rise in staple food prices triggered by the large presence of refugees and returnees from Nigeria will make poor households in the Lake Chad area incapable of protecting their livelihoods and barely enable them to meet their food needs, creating Stressed (IPC Phase 2!) food security conditions for this group of households. CURRENT SITUATION Crop-farming conditions: The main farming activities at this time are harvests of berbéré (flood-recession sorghum) and market garden crops. The berbéré harvest is already underway in Guera and scheduled to begin by early March in Salamat. Based on the good crop development during the past season, production should be Source: FEWS NET These maps show relevant acute food insecurity outcomes average to slightly above-average in Salamat and Batha. However, in for emergency decision-making. They do not necessarily Melfi Department in Guera, high night-time temperatures and reflect chronic food insecurity. currently below-average vegetation growth results in well below- average production (near 50 percent). Harvests have been underway since the second week of February in Mayo Kebbi, where crop yields should be average. Pastoral conditions: Pasture levels in the Sudanian zone are lower than at the same time last year due to an overabundance of animals. Livestock are grazing on pasture, supplemented by supplies of crop residue, new grass growth following earlier FEWS NET CHAD FEWS NET is a USAID-funded activity.

CHAD Food Security Outlook Update February 2015 than usual brush fires, and vegetation on the banks of waterways. Pastoralists from the Central African Republic are putting pressure on the meager supply of available pastures and watering holes, which have been further reduced by the influx of transhumant herds from the Sahelian zone. In general, pasture in the Sahelian zone is currently in adequate condition. Cereal markets and prices: Cereal markets are adequately stocked with supplies of millet, sorghum, and maize, but there is limited availability of locally grown rice with this year’s below-average rice production in Mont-Illi and Kabbia Departments. Cereal supplies are below average on western markets (in Hadjer Lamis, Kanem, Lac, and BEG) due to below-average production and long-distance trade flows extending into Salamat, Kerfi, and the South (Benoye). The situation is even more serious in the Lake Chad region along the border with Nigeria, where prices are up sharply. Maize prices on the Bol market are 81 percent above the five-year average and 50 percent higher than in February 2014. Cereal prices are also on the rise in the Sudanian zone, particularly in Sarh, where sorghum prices are up by 33 percent and millet prices by 15 percent. Sorghum prices in Moundou and Kélo are above the five-year average by 26 percent and 29 percent, respectively. Livestock markets and prices: Trading in livestock between Chad and neighboring countries has declined significantly and become dangerous with the incursions by Boko Haram into border areas of the subregion (Niger, Nigeria, Cameroon, and Chad). Supplies of livestock, particularly cattle, are high across the country as a whole. Population movements: With the attacks by Boko Haram, the Lake Chad Region has been reporting large-scale population movements (15,000 people) into the area from Nigeria since the beginning of the year to escape the insecurity in that country. However, there are also reports of the displacement of many Chadian households from islands along the Nigerian border to neighboring areas. Current food security situation: In general, harvests of berbéré and market garden crops and wage income from paid labor are creating generally good food security conditions. Certain poor households in flood-recession farming areas (Salamat, Guera, and East and West Mayo-Kebbi) have started to rebuild their food stocks and are also able to meet their food needs resulting in Minimal (IPC Phase 1) acute food insecurity. Returnees from the Central African Republic in the Sudanian zone will be able to meet their food and nonfood needs with the help of food assistance and will experience Minimal (IPC Phase 1!) acute food insecurity. Food consumption by households in the Kanem, BEG, and southern Guera areas of the Sahelian zone has been reduced by the premature depletion of their food stocks and the deterioration in terms of trade for livestock/cereals with the sharp decline in livestock prices, translating into Stressed (IPC Phase 2) food security outcomes. Poor households in the Lake Chad area have below-average food consumption and are barely meeting their basic food thanks to assistance, resulting in Stressed (IPC Phase 2!) food insecurity outcomes. UPDATED ASSUMPTIONS The current situation has not affected the assumptions used by FEWS NET in establishing the most likely scenario for the period from January through June 2015. A full discussion of the scenario can be found in the Food Security Outlook for January through June 2015. PROJECTED OUTLOOK THROUGH JUNE 2015 As usual, food stocks in the Kanem, Barh-El-Gazal, and Guera regions will be depleted by April. Poor households in these areas will engage in less essential nonfood spending than usual and, thus, will be Stressed (IPC Phase 2!) between April and June. ABOUT THIS REPORT The food security update is a monthly report on current conditions and changes in the projected food security outlook for this country. It updates FEWS NET’s Food Security Outlook.

  • High Visibility How Disaggregated Metrics Help to Reduce Multidimensional Poverty
    High Visibility How disaggregated metrics help to reduce multidimensional poverty Sabina Alkire and Gisela Robles Aguilar January 2015 In the digital age, it is becoming ever-easier to take good quality, clear photos to share with family and friends. With new technologies that enable us to zoom in and see vivid detail, photos are no longer low- resolution and blurred. And just as we demand clarity from pictures, so we need high resolution poverty metrics. Ahead of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) beginning in September 2015, policymakers across the world are preparing new ways to confront abject poverty in all its forms. As they seek tools to help them do this most effectively, one thing that they are calling for is ‘disaggregated data’. Using the Winter 2014/2015 MPI estimations, this briefing note demonstrates how disaggregated data provide a more detailed picture of the interlinked conditions of the poorest, so that policies can be most effectively designed and targeted. For poverty varies by sub-national regions, rural and urban areas, and among different population subgroups. Here we analyse poverty by sub-national regions; of course, decompositions by ethnicity and age enrich the picture further (Alkire & Vaz 2014, Vaz 2014). About the global MPI: Updates and coverage in Winter 2014/2015 The global MPI is an international measure of Figure 1: Inside the MPI poverty that combines simultaneous disadvantages experienced by the poor across different areas of their lives, covering education, health and living standards (Alkire and Santos 2014; UNDP 2014, Alkire Conconi Robles and Seth 2015). If a person is deprived in one-third or more of ten weighted indicators, they are identified as multidimensionally poor (Figure 1).

  • Chad Food Security Outlook October 2016 Through May 2017
    CHAD Food Security Outlook October 2016 through May 2017 This year’s good rains improve the food security situation in Chad KEY MESSAGES Current food security outcomes for October 2016 A long growing season occurred this year, with the first rains falling a month earlier than usual, in April in the Sudanian zone and in May in Sahelian areas. There were above-average cumulative rainfall totals and a good distribution of rainfall in nearly all agropastoral areas. Cereal production is expected to be better than last year (by 16 percent) and above the five-year average (by 13 percent). The current availability of fresh crops from ongoing harvests, wild vegetables, and other wild plant foods and the availability of milk in certain localized areas have improved the food security situation in all parts of the country (except for the Lake Chad area due to the conflict). Households will have more diversified sources of food between October 2016 and January 2017 and there will be Minimal (IPC Phase 1) acute food insecurity in all parts of the country with the exception of the Lake Chad area. With the usual depletion of their food stocks between February Source: FEWS NET and May 2017, poor households in Kanem, the BEG area, This map shows relevant current acute food insecurity Abtouyour (Guera), and Kobé (Wadi Fira) will face a sharp outcomes for emergency decision-making.

    worki! ownng pap er 2017-06 Universite Laval The impact of oil exploitation on wellbeing in Chad Gadom Djal Gadom Armand Mboutchouang Kountchou Gbetoton Nadège Adèle Djossou Gilles Quentin Kane Abdelkrim Araar February 2017 i The impact of oil exploitation on wellbeing in Chad Abstract This study assesses the impact of oil revenues on wellbeing in Chad using data from the two last Chad Household Consumption and Informal Sector Surveys (ECOSIT 2 & 3), conducted in 2003 and 2011, respectively, by the National Institute of Statistics for Economics and Demographic Studies (INSEED) and, from the College for Control and monitoring of Oil Revenues (CCSRP). To achieve the research objective, we first estimate a synthetic index of multidimensional wellbeing (MDW) based on a large set of welfare indicators. Then, the Difference-in-Difference (DID) approach is used to assess the impact of oil revenues on the average MDW at departmental level. We find evidence that departments receiving intense oil transfers increased their MDW about 35% more than those disadvantaged by the oil revenues redistribution policy. Moreover, the further a department is from the capital city N’Djamena, the lower its average MDW. We conclude that to better promote economic inclusion in Chad, the government should implement a specific policy to better direct the oil revenue investment in the poorest departments.

Received 11 September, 2016; Accepted 21 October, 2016 The Central-African country of Chad, located in the Sahel-Sahara zone, faces diverse shortages of portable water. The only reliable source of water available for drinking, domestic and agricultural use in the Dababa Division is groundwater. Conventional hydro-geochemical and isotopic methodology, coupled with piezometric data, allowed investigators to identify the numerous process affecting not only water quality, but also aided them to assess its suitability for different uses. The types of groundwater encountered indicated the presence of Ca-Mg-HCO3, Na-HCO3, Cl-SO4 and Na-Ca-SO4 in descending order of abundance. The data presented in this investigation shows three processes influenced the groundwater quality; these are the alteration of silicate minerals by dissolved CO2, the cationic exchange and the evaporation phenomenon, in particular, in the piezometric depression. Additionally, to these findings, this article discussed the anthropogenic processes involved, whose effects are evident in many samples with nitrate concentrations above the WHO standards.
