Puntland Agriculture Topic

Post by Righteous »

Contrary to popular belief, Puntland is not barren, as a matter of fact, most major cities within the state are surrounded by farms.



Bosaso


100 acre farms in the western half of the city. They grow tomatoes, limes, dates, carrots, and other vegetables and fruits. The farms in Bosaso are the largest in Somalia north of Hiiraan and it took 5 years to get this far, and they continue to grow. These farms are now almost half the size of the city itself and today there is no food aid in Bosaso because everything is grown locally.

That's awesome, but they really ought to look into center pivot irrigation. It is one of the most efficient ways to farm in arid climates.

The way they are farming now is not very efficient.

Good point! I think the Ministry of Agriculture has done a great job the past few years, but like you said, we need to look at more efficient and sustainable forms of farming.
