    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: "This assessment of the rural Dry Zone reveals the
    nutrition situation to be a concern, with high
    rates of wasting and medium rates of stunting, high rates of low birth weight and high rates
    of undernutrition among mothers; particularly
    those who are pregnant and/or lactating. The
    pattern of indicators suggests that flood plains and irrigated areas are best off,
    and the
    highlands may be worst,

    Highlights:

    Cyclone Komen made landfall in Myanmar at the end of July 2015

    localized losses to the 2015 monsoon season crops, especially p
    addy, in Chin, Rakhine,
    Ayeyarwaddy, Yangon, Sagaing
    and parts of Bago. However, once the water receded, a large portion

    limited.

    Continuing concerns from previous Updates: Paddy harvest Ayeyarwady, Kayin and Bago: Local and regional rice prices are still being monitored after significant flooding severely affected 126,000 acres of paddy land and completely destroyed 55,000 acres.
