KHOGALI, M. M.

Description :
In this district, although there has been some improvement in the crop production situation in 1989, desertification/land degradation and shortage of food produced locally are still prevailing. The people are still living below the poverty line, but they are able to cope because of remittances from members of the families working abroad and because of donations of food by some world organizations.
