 2015-2016 El Nino Update
• The impact of the 2015-2016 El Nino weather phenomenon has
been one of the most intense and widespread in the past one
hundred years . The agriculture, food security, and nutritional
status of more then 60 million people around the globe is
affected by the El Nino related droughts, floods and extreme hot
and cold weather. While El Nino itself has passed its peak and is
now declining its impact is still growing. Harvests in several parts
of the world have already failed and are forecast to fail in other
areas.

• This report provides a global analysis of the El Nino-related

disasters and their impact on agriculture, food security and
nutrition. It aims to give a consolidated outlook of situation and
the early actions being taken by governments, partners and the
food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).
• Analysis in the report is divided between FAO high priority countries
and other countries at risk. Countries were selected bases on a
combination of analysis of the El Nino Event and FAO priorities for
strengthening the resilience of livelihoods to threats and crises. In
the view of the rapid evolution of the El Nino phenomenon, this
report update is regularly. It is part of a more general effort by FAO
to increase the resilience of rural populations threatened by the
crises , including extreme climate events such as El Nino. Given
the degree of exposure and vulnerability of populations to such
events, the need for a focus on resilience building is clear. A recent
ten yearsanalysis led by FAO's climate, Energy and Tenure Division
showed that 25% percent of all damage caused during natural
disasters in the agriculture sector.
• for dought, agriculture is the single most affected sector, absorbing
around 84% percent of all the economic impact
