Imitation is the highest form of flattery.
Regarding the agriculture discussion, Somalia has huge agricultural potential. However, it requires investment, coordination, and the necessary institutions to support its development.
It might be a controversial example, but Israel has transformed thousands of kilometers of arid land into productive farmland and greenhouses by leveraging the vast aquifer beneath Palestine.
By utilizing groundwater, of which we actually have plenty, to create new cropland and further improve existing farmland, combined with the fact that Somalia is becoming wetter due to climate change, Somalia should be able to first feed its own citizens and, in the future, support a population much larger than it currently has.
