El Salvador

Primera (maize and beans) and rice cycles are in the sowing or early vegetation stages. All cropland areas received normal rainfall in the last month. Vegetation conditions are normal across most cropland areas, except in the western part of the country where there are localized areas showing poor vegetation conditions likely due to a delayed establishment of the cycle caused by poor rainfall and above normal temperatures in May. The Copernicus C3S Multimodel forecasts below-normal rainfall for the entire country until the end of August. The Global Report on Food Crisis (GRFC 2025) included El Salvador as a food crisis country and reported that 0.2 million people experienced high levels of acute food insecurity in 2024.
