Earlier this year, in a matter of weeks, cyclone Eline struck the Central Eastern coast of the country, the Gloria storm struck the North Eastern coast and cyclone Hudah struck the North East. The severe rain accompanying the cyclones caused losses in human lives and significant damage to the agricultural sector and hydro-agricultural infrastructures. A summary of FAO's mission report can be downloaded from this site. Four weeks after cyclones Eline and Gloria, Madagascar was struck by cyclone Hudah. This was more powerful than the previous two and caused significant floods, with considerable damage to the agricultural sector in the districts of Antalaha, Maroantsetra and Andapa.
