Two major earthquakes struck the Western and Central Regions of Nepal on 25 April and 12 May 2015 (7.8 and 7.3 magnitude, respectively). Millions of people were affected throughout the country – four out of five people in the worst affected districts depend on agriculture and livestock for their livelihood. FAO continues to work in a close collaboration with the Government of Nepal and Food Security Cluster partners to assist the vulnerable population, including support for early recovery activities.
