    • Dear world Experts of agriculture, livestock & other livelihood sources I am Mr Yusuf Abdi Lare, I am agronomist and residing in Southern Site of Somalia, now the report  that I would like to share is based on five sectors:

      1- Climate changes in Somalia a year after year, in Somalia the climate change has been worsened a day after day because of rotatory flooods, droughts  and locusts  afftects in Somalia all three pastroralm, agro pastoral & reiverene communities are mostly affected economically & socially because they have lost many  crops, heads of animals and their livelihoods in related to climate hazards. 

      2- Household  food security 

      The household food security is in humanitarian crisis, because there is external and internal investment for them to mitiigate or recovery their lives also they get home base agricultural training like house garden training for riverine farmer community on the hand pastoral and agro-pastoral community do not get restocking of animal healds like goat, sheep and cattle 

      3- Nutrition 

      Nutrition section sector is very feeble or very weak  because there some ways in which can develop self reliance nutrition through trainig & seed local seed distribution  instead of normal seed distriibution because the local seed disribution has big resistence to rather than normal seed distribution except mumbai red onion, water, lettuce  and spinach but pumpkin, tomtoes & cucumber could be local seeds. 

      4- Political strategy in Somalia 

      There is no any agriculture political strategy in Somalia but politicians are busy on presidential chairholding position and they always pay huge money to hold everybody postion so that productive people of livestock and farmers are forgotten some fled from floods, some other fled droughts & locust damage some died with Covid-19 pandemic & hunger some are in trauma stress of managing  their day today breads. 

      5- Water resouces 

      Water resouces in Somalia is between pron and cons water sometimes is scarcity and sometimes is floods there is no irrigation water management in Somalia, also all brakages on river banks from Hiran, Middle shabelee, Lower shabelle, Middle Jubba & Lower Juba  is uncontrollable. 

      Thanks 

      Mr Yusuf
