Crops are struggling due to poor weather conditions. Moisture deficits have hindered growth, leading to stunted crops. This has resulted in uncertain prospects for the main season harvest.

Livestock are also being severely impacted by shortages of water and pasture. At the same time, cereal prices are high due to limited market supplies and fuel costs. Further information on the situation is available, including details on the effects of climatic shocks and the impact on food security.
