Several famines have affected Yahukimo Regency. In 2005, around 60 people died and at least 117 fell seriously ill after a food shortage. Another 113 people died from a famine caused by a failed harvest in 2009, but the regional government denied that the food shortage was a "famine".[5][6][7][8]


Administrative Districts


The existing Yahukimo regency comprises fifty-one districts (distrik), tabulated below with their areas and their populations at the 2010 Census[9] and the 2020 Census.[10] The regency has a greater number of districts within it than any other regency in Indonesia; however, proposals are currently under consideration by the Indonesian government to divide Yahukimo Regency into several new regencies. The table also includes the number of administrative villages (rural desa and urban kelurahan in each district, and its postal code. Each district bears the same name as its administrative centre, except for Kurima District, of which Obalma is the administrative centre.
