This report presents the results from a survey conducted in December 2015 by WFP in Eastern Indonesia to assess the impacts of drought related to El Niño on household food security, water access, agriculture, and livelihoods. It also identifies the most impacted populations in terms of geography and livelihoods and provides recommendations to the Government of Indonesia on potential interventions and assistance in targeting.

Key findings from the report include: 40% of primary rice growers lost more than half of their crop in the last harvest; two-thirds of agricultural households said that they had delayed or not yet planted crops in the past three months due to drought; three in five households lost income due to drought; one in five households cut spending on food due to drought.
