Summary
Our monthly Food Security Monitor is one way that AGRA makes data available to key stakeholders to underpin evidencebased decision-making. Highlights from the November Food Security Monitor are summarised below:
Global Market Update
Global grain and fertilizer prices remain largely unchanged in November from October but remain lower than a year ago.
Regional Food Security Updates
In East Africa, high food insecurity concerns remain, particularly in Ethiopia and South Sudan, where Crisis and Emergency (IPC Phase 3 & 4) outcomes generally persist.
In Southern Africa, generally stressed and crisis (IPC 2 and 3) food insecurity conditions prevail across the region.
In West Africa, on average, IPC 3 conditions are observed despite the fact that in countries such as Mali and Burkina Faso IPC 2 and 4 conditions prevail in certain areas, respectively.
