Livelihood vulnerability to rainfall-related drought (WFP, UNEP & NEPA - 2016)

Livelihood zones considered most vulnerable to rainfall-related drought are those relying on rainfed agriculture (particularly cereal production) and pastoralism.

Livelihood zones dominated by irrigated agriculture or poppy production — both rainfed and irrigated (LZ 4, 10, 11, 14 and 29) — are considered moderately vulnerable.

Livelihood zones dominated by non-agricultural activities—including timber harvesting, cross-border trade, cross-border labor migration, and handicrafts—are considered least vulnerable.
