The agricultural situation in Venezuela has seen some positive changes recently. Key crops like rice and maize have experienced significant production increases, with rice production rising by 20% and maize by 30% compared to the previous year. This has led to improved availability of these staples in the market, contributing to more stable prices and easing some food access issues. Labor demand in rural areas has also risen, benefiting from the increased harvests. However, challenges persist, particularly in regions facing inconsistent rainfall and the effects of political and economic instability. The situation remains delicate, as high inflation and limited public spending continue to impact food securityRELIEFWEBRELIEFWEB.
