Check this out this farming method will be really good to replicate in Somalia as there are more coastal settlements there

Teaming up with Aston University in the UK, and the Pastoral and Environmental Network in the Horn of Africa (PENHA) in Somaliland, Seawater Greenhouse Ltd have recently completed construction of a one hectare pilot farm near Berbera. Powered by solar PV, and using seawater for cooling and production of irrigation water and sea salt, the system is entirely closed-loop and independent from freshwater supply. Our vision is to decouple recurrent drought in the region from hunger. Use this page to read our story and find ways to support the project.
 
Somalia is more than capable of feeding itself.

The inter-riverine regions alone are capable of feeding 40 million according to studies conducted under Siad Barre.

There is also good farmland in parts of the North and Somali Galbeed.

This isn't even counting the use of hydroponics, seawater irrigation, greenhouses in the desert and fisheries.
