Mise à jour sur la sécurité alimentaire Avril - Septembre 2026 Aggravation des déficits alimentaires dans le nord et l’est du pays à partir de juin Download the report
  • Des résultats de Crise ! (Phase 3 ! de l’IPC) persisteront dans la province du Karo-Peli jusqu’en mai. Toutefois, à partir de juin, la province sera en Urgence (Phase 4 de l’IPC). Bien que des céréales soient disponibles sur le marché et que le gouvernement les vende à des prix subventionnés, les ménages pauvres manquent de revenus suffisants pour satisfaire leurs besoins. Ils sont contraints de réduire à la fois les quantités et le nombre de repas par jour. Cependant, l’assistance en cours contribue à prévenir les déficits sévères de consommation, au moins jusqu’en mai. La consommation des ménages devrait se détériorer rapidement entre juin et septembre.
  • L’insécurité alimentaire aiguë de Stress ! (Phase 2 ! de l’IPC) se maintiendra jusqu’en mai dans les provinces du Djelgodji et du Yagha. Les stocks de la propre production sont épuisés. Bien que les ventes de céréales à prix subventionné soient en cours, les ménages manquent de revenus suffisants pour assurer leur alimentation. L’assistance en cours reste la principale source de nourriture et contribue à réduire les déficits de consommation. Entre juin et septembre, ces provinces, y compris celles de l’Oudalan, du Loroum, du Kossin, Sourou, Séno, Komandjori, Gourma, Kompienga, Gobnangou, Dyamongou seront exposées à Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC). Les faibles revenus des ménages pauvres ne suffiront pas à éviter d'importants écarts de consommation.
  • Les prix des denrées restent supérieurs à leurs moyennes quinquennales dans certaines zones à fort défi sécuritaire, bien que les disponibilités se soient améliorées après les ravitaillements sous escorte militaire au cours des six derniers mois. Sur les marchés d’Arbinda et de Sebba, des hausses respectives de 15 et 40 pour cent (mil) et de 36 et 24 pour cent (riz importé) ont été observées en mars. 
  • Les perturbations du transport maritime mondial liées au conflit au Moyen-Orient pourraient, à court terme, avoir des répercussions sur les volumes et les prix des biens importés, notamment les hydrocarbures, les fertilisants et les produits alimentaires. Une hausse des prix de ces produits affectera négativement le pouvoir d’achat des ménages et l’accès des producteurs aux engrais, avec des impacts négatifs sur la production agricole de la campagne 2026/2027. 

    Ce rapport fournit une mise à jour des perspectives sur la sécurité alimentaire de février à septembre 2026 et des messages clés de mars 2026. L’analyse est basée sur les informations disponibles au 19 avril 2026.
