Food Security Country Brief

Food prices have increased and then stabilized in the past two months, but impacts on food consumption of the vulnerable population are still expected to be substantial. Whereas the emergency situation due to floods in July/August is still not over in parts of Sindh province, other districts have started the return and recovery process of displaced families. Agencies share concerns over a severe food security situation where emergency food assistance is still heavily required. The Gove rnment is assisting the population hit by the flood through distribution of cards, seeds and fertilizer with the support of international agencies which also provide agricultural inputs and food aid.
