Perspectives sur la sécurité alimentaire Juin 2026 - Janvier 2027 Les déficits de consommation alimentaire persisteront à Karo-Peli malgré les récoltes à partir de septembre Download report Read full report
  • Des résultats de Crise ! (Phase 3 ! de l’IPC) seront attendus dans la province du Karo-Peli entre juin 2026 et septembre 2026. Les revenus des ménages seront insuffisants pour faire des achats de denrées de base à prix élevé. Ils seront contraints de limiter à la fois les quantités et le nombre de repas par jour et d’accroître le recours aux produits de cueillette. L’assistance alimentaire prévue contribuera à réduire les déficits sévères de consommation. Entre octobre 2026 et janvier 2027, les ménages pauvres seront exposés à l’insécurité alimentaire aiguë de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC). Les nouvelles récoltes, bien qu’elles resteraient inférieures à la moyenne avant la crise, empêcheront des écarts importants de consommation. 
  • Des résultats de Stress ! (Phase 2 ! de l’IPC) sont anticipés entre juin et septembre 2026 dans les autres provinces à fort défi sécuritaire : Djelgodji, Dyamongou, Gobnangou, Komandjori, Kompienga, Loroum, Oudalan, Seno et Yagha. Malgré la faiblesse des revenus, le niveau relativement bas des prix sur le marché et les ventes de céréales à prix subventionné prévues favoriseront un accès alimentaire. Ils sont obligés de réduire à la fois les quantités et le nombre de repas par jour. Les écarts importants de consommation des ménages seront partiellement atténués par l’assistance alimentaire prévue, qui couvrira entre 50 et 75 pour cent des besoins pour au moins 25 pour cent de la population. Entre octobre 2026 et janvier 2027, les ménages pauvres seront exposés à Stress (Phase 2 de l’IPC). Les nouvelles récoltes, en légère augmentation, seront suffisantes pour couvrir les besoins alimentaires. Cependant, les revenus resteront faibles pour reconstruire leurs moyens d’existence. 
  • FEWS NET estime qu’entre 1,5-1,99 millionsde personnes seraient dans le besoin. Ces besoins devraient atteindre leur pic entre juillet et août 2026. Ces personnes, essentiellement les hôtes pauvres et les PDI pauvres, se retrouveraient principalement dans les zones à fort défi sécuritaire dans le nord et l’est du pays. 

    L’analyse présentée ici est basée sur les informations disponibles au 22 juin 2026.
