  • COUNTRY Food Security Update
    YEMEN Food Security Outlook Update April 2017 Food imports continue, but potential for port disruptions in Al Hudaydah remain a concern KEY MESSAGES Conflict in Yemen continues to be the primary driver of Food security outcomes, April to May 2017 the largest food security emergency in the world. Currently, large populations face Crisis (IPC Phase 3) or Emergency (IPC Phase 4) acute food insecurity, the latter of which is associated with an increased risk of excess mortality. IDP populations and poor households in conflict zones are likely facing the most severe food security outcomes. As of January 2017, in-country stocks of wheat flour stood at approximately 1.1 million MT, enough to meet national consumption requirements for approximately four months. Following sharp declines in January and February, wheat and wheat flour imports through Al Hudaydah and Salif ports increased in March 2017. Overall, imports of wheat/wheat flour through these two ports between January and March 2017 were in line with levels seen between October and December 2016. Source: FEWS NET Recent statements related to the potential for an offensive Projected food security outcomes, June to September 2017 military operation near the ports of Al Hudaydah and Salif raise concerns that imports through these major ports could be halted in the near term. In a worst-case scenario, significant declines in commercial imports below requirement levels and conflict that cuts populations off from trade and humanitarian assistance for an extended period of time could drive food security outcomes in line with Famine (IPC Phase 5). CURRENT SITUATION Conflict and population displacement Widespread conflict events, including both airstrikes and armed clashes, continue throughout Yemen, particularly in western areas.

  • YEMEN Food Security Outlook February to September 2018 Humanitarian Intervention Remains Critical to Mitigating More Extreme Levels of Food Insecurity in 2018
    YEMEN Food Security Outlook February to September 2018 Humanitarian intervention remains critical to mitigating more extreme levels of food insecurity in 2018 KEY MESSAGES • Large populations in Yemen continue to face Crisis (IPC Phase Current food security outcomes, February 2018 3) or Emergency (IPC Phase 4) acute food insecurity. As worst- affected households begin to exhaust their coping capacity, populations may begin to move into Catastrophe (IPC Phase 5) even in the absence of additional disruptions. In a worst-case scenario, significant declines in commercial imports below requirement levels and conflict that cuts populations off from trade and humanitarian assistance for an extended period could drive food security outcomes in line with Famine (IPC Phase 5). • Large-scale humanitarian assistance continues to play an important role in reducing the severity of acute food insecurity outcomes in Yemen. In 2017, the humanitarian community reached on average nearly six million beneficiaries, and that number is increasing in 2018. Current funding for emergency food assistance in Yemen is expected to be sufficient to provide Source: FEWS NET assistance at current levels only through May 2018. FEWS NET classification is IPC-compatible. IPC-compatible analysis follows key IPC protocols but does not necessarily reflect the consensus of national food security partners. • Yemen’s main seaports (Al Hudaydah, Salif, Aden, Al Mukalla) remain open and inflows of commercial and humanitarian imports have continued into March. However, import levels are broadly below pre-blockade levels and less than monthly food and fuel import requirements. SEASONAL CALENDAR FOR A TYPICAL YEAR Source: FEWS NET FEWS NET Yemen FEWS NET is a USAID-funded activity.
