Farmers in Hudur, Southern Somalia, face severe drought and conflict, threatening their livelihoods. Ibrahim, a father of nine, struggled with poor crop yields and water scarcity. With support from World Vision’s Somali Nexus Accelerator Fund (NAF), he received drought-resistant seeds, agricultural training, and a solar-powered irrigation system. This transformed his farm, enabling consistent harvests, food security, and income for his family’s education. Ibrahim’s success story highlights the impact of sustainable farming solutions in conflict-affected regions.
