This raises concerns about hunger
Mueda, Cabo Delgado – The
drought that affected the region between January and February this year has
compromised around one thousand hectares of agricultural crops, raising
concerns about food security for the first cycle of the 2024/2025 agricultural
campaign.
The information was
disclosed by the Director of the District Service of Economic Activities,
Manuel Dos Santos Matedo, who pointed out that the lack of rainfall impacted
all administrative posts in the district, with effects classified as small to
medium scale.
This alarming situation
highlights the vulnerability of agricultural communities in the region, which
heavily rely on climatic conditions for their harvests.
Despite the challenges faced
in the first agricultural season, Matedo expressed optimism regarding the
possibility of recovery in the second season, should climatic conditions become
favorable.
Local producers expressed their concern about climate irregularity but many showed determination to overcome the obstacles. (Mozanorte)
