Where and who: The Districts of Ambovombe, Beloha, Tsihombe, Amboasary, Ampanihy, and Betioky are facing both acute food insecurity - Phase 3 (Crisis) and acute malnutrition - Phase 3 (Serious). Bekily is classified in IPC IPC Acute Food Insecurity June – July 2019 Phase 4 (Critical - IPC Acute Malnutrition), the District of Toliara II is in IPC Phase 3 (Serious - IPC Acute Malnutrition), and the 5 communes of Taolagnaro are classified in IPC Phase 3 (Crisis - IPC Acute Food Insecurity). Compared to the results of the last IPC Acute Food Insecurity analysis in October 2018, the food security situation in Beloha and Ampanihy districts has significantly improved. The improvement can be attributed in part to humanitarian intervention packages carried out in these two districts: Beloha moved from Phase 4 to Phase 3 with the proportion of households in Phase 3 and 4 falling from 67% in 2018 to 25% in June 2019. The District of Ampanihy was projected to be in Phase 4, but its current phasing is maintained in Phase 3. IPC Acute Malnutrition March – July 2019 Why: Major contributing factors to the food insecurity are the poor harvest due to insect damage and irregular rainfall, and the low household income and purchasing power. Major contributing factors to the deterioration of the nutritional situation include inadequate food intake, low dietary diversity of children, high prevalence of diseases (diarrhea, Acute Respiratory Infections, malaria and measles), with more than 30% related to poor access to health services, and low access to safe drinking water. IPC ANALYSIS OF FOOD INSECURITY AND ACUTE MALNUTRITION MADAGASCAR SOUTH AND SOUTH EAST March 2019 – February 2020 Issued in August 2019 OVERVIEW OF THE ACUTE FOOD INSECURITY SITUATION AND CONTRIBUTING FACTORS 2 in the presence of Humanitarian Food Assistance Overview of the current situation (June – July 2019) The period of analysis covers the beginning of the harvest for all analyzed areas. The majority of districts in the South are in Phase 3 (Crisis) except Bekily and Toliara II, that are classified in Phase 2 (Stress). In the South East, Farafangana, Vangaindrano and Vohipeno Districts are also classified in Phase 2 and Manakara Atsimo is in Phase 1 (Minimal). More than 730,000 people – 21% of the population of the analyzed areas – are in IPC Phases 3 and 4 (Crisis and Emergency) and therefore require urgent action. A significant decrease in the proportion of the population categorized in these phases was observed compared to the IPC analysis results in 2018 for the same period. For Beloha district, the proportion of population in IPC Phase 3 and 4 has decreased considerably from 65% to 25% for the same period (June 2018/2019); slight improvements have also been recorded in the other districts: Ampanihy from 49% to 40%; Ambovombe from 30% to 22%; Bekily from 28% to 18%; and Tsihombe from 27% to 23%. For Amboasary district and the 5 communes of Taolagnaro, the situation has stabilized slightly. In general, despite the attack of insect pests and a somewhat unfavourable meteorological context, harvests in 2019 were better than the critically low levels in 2017 and 2018. However, difficulties persist, even if they are transient and localized. Food security in the south remains critical because although the harvests Outcomes of acute food insecurity: from the main season crop have improved, this has been very marginal. more than 30% of households in these Household incomes remain very low, limiting purchasing power. Insect areas have inadequate food consumption damage, irregular rainfall in terms of quantity received and geographical at least 65% of households have reduced distribution, have destroyed cereal crops such as rice and maize. There portion sizes at meals, was a significant crop loss of almost 100% in Ambovombe. a fairly significant proportion of households (between 15 and 38%) adopted As for the South East, the weather conditions were more favourable. crisis strategies, reflected in the accelerated Spared by cyclones and major floods and benefiting from sufficient depletion of productive assets, particularly rainfall, the harvests of the main season crop were better than in 2018. the sale of productive livestock (around 10% Compared to 2017, the harvest was also better. Moreover, there is no of households have reduced their cattle population in Phase 4 and the proportion of the population in Phase 3 herds). (Crisis) does not exceed 15%. Overview of the projected situation (August – December 2019) The projected period corresponds to the period of off-season preparation that takes place during the lean season. It coincides with the period of significant expenses: funeral ceremonies, back-to-school time, preparation of farmland. These conditions lead to the risk of deterioration in some districts. For a large part of the population, stocks from the harvest of the main season will be depleted early. For the South, the harvest of tubers, cassava and sweet potato would help to mitigate this shortage. However, it is primarily middle-income and wealthy households that can see major impacts from this opportunity and poor households with limited access to land will benefit on a smaller scale. The weather conditions, though quite conducive, do not give hope for more favorable harvests with the threat of pest attacks. The lean season from September to November 2019 will exacerbate household difficulties. Household living conditions will deteriorate. For the South East, Manakara would move from Phase 1 to Phase 2 (Stress). For the other districts, the proportion of households in Phase 3 will remain relatively stable (Vangaindrano and Vohipeno), even increasing slightly by around 5% for Farafangana. For the South, the proportion of the population in IPC Phase 4 (Emergency) in Beloha, Taolagnaro and Tsihombe will increase slightly. IPC ANALYSIS OF FOOD INSECURITY AND ACUTE MALNUTRITION MADAGASCAR SOUTH AND SOUTH EAST March 2019 - February 2020 Issued in August 2019 OVERVIEW OF THE ACUTE MALNUTRITION SITUATION AND CONTRIBUTING FACTORS 3 Overviewin the presence of the ofcurrent Humanitarian situation Food (March Assistance – July 2019) For all the analyzed districts, the current period corresponds to the end of the lean season up to the period of main season crop harvest, which coincides with the peak of acute malnutrition cases between March and April, according to nutritional monitoring data and SMART surveys. For the current period, the districts of Betioky, Ampanihy, Toliara II, Tsihombe, Beloha, Ambovombe and Amboasary are classified in Phase 3 (Serious), followed by the districts of Mananjary, Taolagnaro, Vangaindrano in Phase 2 (Alert) and Farafangana in Phase 1 (Acceptable). The high prevalence of diseases in Bekily, including diarrhea (34%), fever and malaria (60%) and Acute Respiratory Infections (68%), combined with the persistence of inadequate feeding practices (33% exclusive breastfeeding) and low vaccination coverage (vitamin A-64%, measles- 50%) have increased levels of acute malnutrition in the district and led to its classification in Phase 4 (Critical), requiring a crucial and targeted response. Major contributing factors to the deterioration of the nutritional situation in the analyzed districts during this period include: exposure to relatively high acute food insecurity (IPC Phase 3 for all southern districts and IPC Phase 2 for the southeastern districts) of households with negative impacts on children's dietary diversity; inadequate food intake; the prevalence of diseases such as diarrhea, Acute Respiratory Infections (ARIs), malaria, access to drinking water; and the measles epidemic. Overview of the projected situation (August – October 2019, and November 2019 – February 2020) The first projected period (August – October 2019) corresponds to a post-harvest period implying an improvement in food availability, and a dry period leading to a decrease in the number of cases of malnutrition-related diseases. Thus, a more marked improvement in nutrition is expected in 4 districts (Bekily, Toliara II, Mananjary and Vangaindrano) which will lead to a reclassification to a lower phase, notably Tulear-II (3 to 2), Bekily (4 to 3), Mananjary (2 to 1) and Vangaindrano (2 to 1), and less pronounced in the other 8 districts where a phase change is not to be anticipated. The second period (November 2019 – February 2020) coincides with the beginning of the lean season, which is characterized by the depletion of household food reserves, declining access to food, and the rainy or even cyclonic season in the Southeast, with risks of an upsurge of diarrhea and malaria cases.

  • MADAGASCAR Food Security Outlook February to September 2016
    MADAGASCAR Food Security Outlook February to September 2016 Ongoing drought will drive food insecurity during the 2016/17 consumption year KEY MESSAGES Current food security outcomes for February 2016 An El Niño-related drought is ongoing in the South and West, with certain areas facing one of the driest rainy seasons in 35 years. Although sufficient rainfall in central and northern parts of country will contribute to near-average harvests in those areas, staple food production at a national-level will likely be below- average due to significant declines in production in drought-affected areas. Poor households in the south, particularly in Androy, Atsimo Andrefana, Tsihombe and Ambovombe, will continue to face Crisis (IPC Phase 3) or Stressed (IPC Phase 2) food insecurity between February and April 2016 due to the effects of two consecutive years of below-average crop production in 2014 and 2015 and an ongoing, extended lean season caused by drought-related delays in 2016 harvests. Between April and August, main season harvests will slightly improve food insecurity in the South, although many households will still face Stressed (IPC Phase 2) outcomes given the effects of expected below-average harvests. Crop failures in the districts of Tsihombe and Ambovombe, however, will likely result Source: FEWS NET in a continuation of Crisis (IPC Phase 3) outcomes for affected populations in This map represents acute food insecurity these districts. outcomes relevant for emergency decision- making.

KEY MESSAGES 1. The Grand Sud of Madagascar has been buffeted by back to back droughts during the 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 rainy seasons, forcing people to resort to desperate survival measures, such as eating locusts, raw red cactus fruits or wild leaves. The agriculture sector has been severely impacted. Between November 2020 and January 2021, less than 50 per cent of the normal rainfall was received in the Grand Sud, leading to the most acute drought in the region since 1981. By January 2021, almost 69 per cent of the Grand Sud was impacted by extreme drought. The water table is critically low in many districts, reducing access to potable water. 2. Nearly two in every five people in the Grand-Sud (1.13 million people) are severely food insecure and five districts—Amboasary Atsimo, Ambovombe Androy, Beloha, Tsihombe and Ampanihy Ouest—are in IPC Phase 4 (Emergency) from April to September 2021. In Amboasary Atsimo, about 75 per cent of the population is severely food insecure and about 14,000 people are estimated to be in IPC Phase 5 (Catastrophe), according to the latest Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) analysis.

Les relevés (CNA) effectués dans l’Aire grégarigène montraient cependant que la plage optimale pluviométrique (annexe 1) était atteinte dans certaines localités des compartiments Centre et Sud de l’Aire de densation (11,5 mm à Efoetse, 38,0 mm à Beloha et 28,0 mm à Lavanono). Dans les zones à faible pluviosité, à l’exception de l’Aire d’invasion Est, les réserves hydriques des sols devenaient de plus en plus difficilement utilisables, le point de flétrissement permanent pouvant être atteint dans les biotopes les plus arides. Les strates herbeuses dans les différentes régions naturelles se desséchaient rapidement. En général, la hauteur des strates herbeuses variait de 10 à 80 cm selon les régions naturelles, les biotopes et les espèces graminéennes. Le taux de verdissement variait de 20 à 40 % dans l’Aire grégarigène et de 30 à 50 % dans l’Aire d’invasion. Les biotopes favorables au développement des acridiens se limitaient progressivement aux bas-fonds.
