Mise à jour sur la sécurité alimentaire Décembre 2025 Les résultats de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) persistent dans les zones affectées par les conflits Download the report
  • En décembre 2025 et janvier 2026, des résultats de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) sont estimés dans les régions Tillabéry, Diffa et Tahoua en raison de la persistance des conflits. Il y a même des portions de ménages en Urgence (Phase 4 de l’IPC) parmi les populations déplacées et sinistrées par les inondations. L’insécurité alimentaire aiguë de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) affecte la majorité des zones et des populations des régions de Tillabéry et de Diffa, mais seulement 2 sur 12 départements de la région de Tahoua.
  • En février-mai 2026, les résultats de l’insécurité alimentaire aiguë de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) vont persister dans ces régions, avec toujours des catégories de populations qui seront en Urgence (Phase 4 de l’IPC). Cependant, si les zones affectées par l’insécurité alimentaire restent les mêmes que celles observées en décembre 2025 et janvier 2026, il y aura une évolution à la hausse des proportions des populations affectées en février-mai 2026.
  • Les zones de préoccupations sont celles affectés par les effets cumulés de l’insécurité civile, des inondations et des séquences sèches dont les impacts sont les baisses de la production agricole. Les ménages pauvres déplacés représentent plus de la moitié des ménages dans les phases les plus élevées de l’insécurité alimentaire. Les ménages pauvres sinistrés des inondations et ceux ayant été victimes des longues séquences sèches intervenues aux périodes critiques des stades phénologiques des cultures, font aussi partie des ménages affectés par les phases élevées de l’insécurité alimentaire aigue. Ils font face à une limitation des repas à 1 à 2 repas par jour.
  • La disponibilité des produits de consommation est faible chez les ménages ayant subi des déficits de production propres, mais le niveau de l’offre de denrées alimentaires est moyen sur les marchés. Les prix des denrées alimentaires poursuivent leur tendance à la baisse par rapport aux niveaux de l’année dernière et à la moyenne quinquennale. La situation observée sur les marchés des animaux est l’amélioration de l’offre et des prix, à des niveaux supérieurs à ceux de l’année passée et à la moyenne quinquennale. 

Ce rapport fournit une mise à jour des perspectives sur la sécurité alimentaire d’octobre 2025 à mai 2026 et des messages clés de novembre 2025. L’analyse est basée sur les informations disponibles au 19 décembre 2025.

Food Security Outlook Update December 2025 Crisis (IPC Phase 3) outcomes persist in conflict-affected areas Download the report
  • In December 2025 and January 2026, Crisis (IPC Phase 3) outcomes are estimated in the Tillabéry, Diffa, and Tahoua regions due to continuous conflicts. There are pockets of households in Emergency (IPC Phase 4) among displaced populations and those affected by flooding. Crisis (IPC Phase 3) acute food insecurity affects the majority of areas and populations in the Tillabéry and Diffa regions, but only two out of 12 departments in the Tahoua region.
  • From February to May 2026, Crisis (IPC Phase 3) acute food insecurity outcomes will persist in these regions, with population groups still in Emergency (IPC Phase 4). However, while areas affected by food insecurity will remain the same as those observed in December 2025 and January 2026, there will be an increase in the proportions of affected populations from February to May 2026.
  • Areas of concern are those affected by the cumulative effects of insecurity, flooding, and dry spells, the impacts of which include decreases in agricultural production. Poor, displaced households account for more than half of households in the highest food insecurity phases. Poor households affected by flooding and those who have been affected by long dry spells occurring during critical periods of crop phenological stages are also among the households with high acute food insecurity. Their meals are limited to one or two per day.
  • The availability of consumer products is low among households that experienced their own production deficits, but the level of food supply is average in markets. Food prices continue their downward trend compared to last year's levels and the five-year average. Livestock markets show improvements in supply and prices, yet still higher than last year and the five-year average.
  • This report provides an update to the October 2025 to May 2026 Food Security Outlook and November 2025 Key Message Update. The analysis is based on information available as of December 19, 2025.
