@MOASomalia, H.E. @Hon_Maareeye is honored to welcome H.E. Salah Ahmed Jama, Deputy Prime Minister of Somalia, to officially launch the Somalia Agriculture Sector Coordination (ASC) during today’s high‑level event in Mogadishu.The ASC was established by the Ministry of Agriculture & Irrigation, in collaboration with FAO and WFP, to serve as Somalia’s primary mechanism for coordinating development, recovery, and durable solutions across the agri‑food system. It strengthens information management, accountability, partner mapping, resource mobilization, and alignment with national priorities, addressing long‑standing inefficiencies, fragmentation, duplication, and overlap of efforts.It is fully aligned with the Agriculture Transformation Strategy (2025–2029) and the National Transformation Plan (NTP‑10), supporting the transition of farmers toward modern mixed‑farming systems that integrate crops, livestock, fisheries, and improved technologies, while promoting greater investment in agribusiness value chains and advancing productivity and climate resilience.
