FEWS NET Warns of Agricultural Pressure in Mozambique Due to Heat and Poor Rainfall

FEWS NET Warns of Agricultural Pressure in Mozambique Due to Heat and Poor Rainfall

The Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) has issued a warning that Mozambique's upcoming 2026/2027 agricultural season could face significant pressure from above-average temperatures and rainfall deficits. This forecast, detailed in FEWS NET's latest monitoring report, indicates that these conditions, influenced by the El Niño climate phenomenon, will increase evapotranspiration and crop water requirements across much of southern Africa. Mozambican authorities have already reported heatwaves exceeding 40 degrees Celsius in the country's south. These environmental factors are expected to exacerbate the impact of delayed rainy seasons and prolonged dry spells, posing risks to agricultural production. While southern Mozambique currently shows above-average vegetation conditions due to good rainfall in the 2025-2026 season, the central and northern regions present a less favorable outlook, with potential deterioration if below-normal rainfall materializes.

Honolulu Voters Approve Food Security Fund to Combat Widespread Hunger

Honolulu Voters Approve Food Security Fund to Combat Widespread Hunger

Honolulu voters have decisively approved a charter amendment establishing a special fund dedicated to addressing food insecurity across Oʻahu. The initiative, championed by the Hawaiʻi Foodbank, received support from three out of four voters. This new fund will allocate approximately $8 million annually from existing property tax revenues, a sum nearly equivalent to the food bank's yearly budget for food procurement. The primary goal is to funnel support to programs that connect residents in need with locally produced foods and to plan for emergency food needs, such as those arising from major storms. The city is now tasked with determining the most effective way to utilize these funds, balancing support for existing programs with the potential for new initiatives. The Oʻahu Food Systems Action Plan, a comprehensive 154-page document, is expected to guide the allocation of these new resources.
