Caritas Belgium, Averting famines in South Sudan by supporting indigenous semi-commercial food production

01.08.2015 - 31.07.2017

Food insecurity in South Sudan remains distressingly widespread. Nationwide, some 41% of the population is severely food insecure as per FSMS report conducted in April 2015, and the IPC report released in May 2015 projected that 4.6 million people are facing severe food insecurity. Main causes are the ongoing conflict, the limited functioning markets, high food prices associated with rising inflation and depreciation of the local currency, diminishing purchasing power of most households, depletion of household stocks and depleted livelihood options. Caritas Belgium with its implementing partners intend to improve farming ability of rural farmers in the greenbelt area of Greater Equatoria through extension provision, market linkages and provision of appropriate technology to farmers group in order to improve production and reduce food insecurity. The greenbelt which is mostly the greater Equatoria region is extremely fertile, its population is exclusively made up of farmers and it is South Sudan’s most peaceful region.
