  • Terai Flood | August 2017
    NEPAL Terai Flood | August 2017 A REPORT ON THE FOOD SECURITY IMPACT OF THE 2017 FLOOD IN THE TERAI Comprehensive report based on the results of ad hoc District Food Security Network (DFSN) meetings in 15 districts (23-29 August and 9-17 September 2017) Background Heavy monsoon rainfall during 10-13 August 2017 triggered severe flash floods and land- Figure 1: Water level of Ruikhola river at Bankatta. Source: DHM slides in 35 out of 75 districts in Nepal (see Figures 1 and 2). An Initial Rapid Assessment (IRA) conducted in 28 districts revealed that floods and landslides claimed 141 lives, injured 117 persons, displaced 460,900 people, and left 24 missing. Damage to houses, infrastruc- tures, and productive resources was severe; roughly 65,000 houses were completely de- stroyed and 120,100 houses were partially damaged (Nepal Red Cross Society, IRA Compi- lation Report, 20 August 2017). The southern Terai plains were critically affected by the floods and experienced severe hu- manitarian implications in terms of damage to houses, displacement, food security, health and sanitation, access to basic services, and losses in agricultural production. The Ministry of Agricultural Development (MoAD) has estimated 57 million USD in losses of major crops in 30 districts, of which approximately 56.7 million USD in losses occurred in Terai districts. A quick nutrition assessment conducted by the Nutrition Cluster reported high levels of undernutrition (wasting) in the flood-affected Terai districts. NeKSAP undertook a 72-hour assessment of the flood using satellite images, the IRA, sec- ondary data, and field information. The results indicated that Saptari, Rautahat, Mahottari, Bardiya and Banke were the most flood-affected districts, followed by Sarlahi, Siraha, Parsa and Dhanusha (Nepal Terai Flood Update Version 2.0).
