AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Food & Nutrition: Chinese-supported hybrid rice is now grown across 90,000 hectares in Madagascar, averaging 7.5 tonnes per hectare—two to three times traditional yields—as farmers prepare for the rainy season. Plague: Health officials confirmed four cases in Ankazobe, Anjozorobe and Ambohimanarisoa, with five suspected cases in the southeast. About 200 contacts are being monitored and have received preventive treatment; surveillance and flea control have been stepped up. Food Security: An estimated 3.7 million people face acute food insecurity, including 426,000 in critical conditions. Drought and El Niño have hurt harvests of rice, cassava and maize, pushing up food prices.
