Conflict fuels hunger. It displaces families, disrupts agriculture and weakens economic growth📉 World Food Programme is on the ground and committed to support the people of #SouthSudan

The lean season is the period between harvests when families often run out of food stocks. In #SouthSudan, it falls between April and August, when World Food Programme scales up support to deliver lifesaving assistance to families who rely on it to survive.
