Food Security Outlook June 2026 - January 2027 Likely El Niño-induced dryness to lead to outcomes aligned with Crisis (IPC Phase 3) in southern areas by November Download report Read full report
  • From June to October 2026, outcomes aligned with Stressed (IPC Phase 2) are expected in southern agropastoral zones and much of the coast. The March-June national cereal harvest was below average, and rural households will likely deplete their food stocks and become market reliant up to four months early. Poor households will have minimally adequate food consumption due to market purchases of maize meal using intensified self-employment, income from informal labor, and livestock sales in agropastoral areas, but they will reduce non-food expenditures.
  • From November 2026 to January 2027, Crisis (IPC Phase 3)-aligned outcomes are expected across agropastoral areas. During the November-February lean season, falling livestock-to-maize terms of trade, elevated prices, and declining milk availability will result in food consumption deficits. Poor households will likely increase livestock sales and engage in a variety of self-employment activities to increase income for market food purchases. Isolated pockets of poor agropastoral households with no livestock (and therefore no milk) and limited income-earning opportunities will face outcomes aligned with Emergency (IPC Phase 4) as the lean season peak in January. 
  • The population in need is expected to increase progressively throughout the projection period, reaching 1.0–1.49 million people between November 2026 and January 2027, with needs likely peaking as the annual lean season peaks in early 2027. The areas of the highest concern are in southern agropastoral areas where food insecurity will likely intensify seasonally as households have increasingly fewer livestock to sell, less milk to consume, and fewer agricultural labor opportunities from November to January.  

    The analysis in this report is based on information available as of June 30, 2026.

Acute Food Insecurity Area-Level Classifications

FEWS NET produces IPC-compatible area-level acute food insecurity classifications monthly for FEWS NET reporting countries. This data is available as spatial files, tabular files, and map images. It is a key output of FEWS NET integrated food security analysis and is reported in our Food Security Outlooks and Outlook Updates (FSO/U) and Key Message Updates (KMU).

Acutely Food Insecure Population Estimates

These estimates reflect the total population estimated to face Crisis (IPC Phase 3) or worse acute food insecurity outcomes, including those who are receiving humanitarian food assistance and those who are not. This tabular data is a key output of FEWS NET integrated food security analysis and is reported in our FSOs, global Food Assistance Outlook Briefs (FAOB), and semi-annual global Peak Food Assistance Needs Outlook Briefs.
