Haiti: Rebuilding agriculture one year after devastating earthquake
One year later, rural areas continue to suffer from the reverberations of Haiti's devastating earthquake: the ongoing cholera outbreak and the flooding and landslides triggered by Hurricane Tomas have hit the agriculture sector particularly hard. Poor, vulnerable, agriculture-dependent communities are the ones that feel more the most severe consequences of natural disasters.
According to Mr Etienne Peterschmitt, FAO Senior Emergency and Rehabilitation Coordinator for Haiti, "agriculture has a critical role to play not only in eliminating hunger and malnutrition, but also in boosting rural incomes, reversing environmental degradation and increasing resilience to future threats".
