MYANMAR 2025. Earthquake

The 7.7 magnitude earthquake that struck central Myanmar on 28 March 2025 caused widespread devastation across key agricultural regions, severely disrupting rural livelihoods and food production systems. The disaster impacted cropland, livestock assets, irrigation infrastructure and food storage facilities and compounded existing vulnerabilities in communities already affected by instability and food insecurity. With the monsoon planting season approaching, disruptions to agricultural inputs and markets threaten to worsen the crisis. In support of humanitarian response efforts, FAO is seeking USD 8.3 million to assist 71 000 people through time-critical interventions, including the provision of agricultural inputs, financial assistance and the rehabilitation of damaged rural infrastructure
