1 Gedo Region Deyr 2010/11 January 26, 2011 Information for Better Livelihoods Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit Somalia EUROPEAN COMMISSION Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation SDC

2 Deyr 2010/11 Seasonal Assessment Coverage Field Access and Field Data Locations Normal access in all livelihood zones and districts of Gedo region

3 Main Livelihood Groups Sources of Food and Income 2 Agropastoral Livelihoods (Southern Agropastoral and Bay Agropastoral High Potential)  Southern Agropastoral are more pastoral than agriculturalists. Main sources of income: sale of livestock & livestock products, self-employment (fodder and bush products sales); main sources of food: purchase and own production  Gedo Agropastoral High potential are more agriculturalists than pastoralists. Main sources of income: sale of crops, livestock products and labour; main sources of food: own crop production and purchases. Riverine Livelihood (Juba riverine pump irrigation) are agriculturalists. Main sources of income: sale of crops and labour; main sources of food: purchase and own crop production. Livelihood Groups & Main Sources of Food and Income 2 Pastoral Livelihoods (Southern Inland and Dawa Pastoralists)  Primary sources of income of poor: sale of livestock & livestock products  Primary sources of food of poor: purchase and own production  Primary livelihood assets of poor: camel, cattle and sheep/goat

4 Overall statement: Unfavourable climate in the region with below normal rainfall in most livelihoods of the region. Start of Season: started on time Temporal and Spatial Distribution: Poor rainfall with low intensity and inadequate duration, frequency and amount in the entire region. Near average rains received in pockets of the north: Luuq district (Qoroyaale, Haarxoday and Galiya villages) received good rains in 3 rd dekad of October (40 – 60% of normal) and 1 st dekad of November. Climate Performance of the Deyr 2010/11 Rainfall

5 Climate Vegetation Conditions NDVI LTM Trend Analysis by district/ land cover

6  Civil Security Situation: Conflict incidents occurred in October at Belethawa town. Militia build-up on the other side of the border (Ethiopian side) likely to cause another confrontation  Direct and Indirect Impacts on Food Security & Nutrition: Displacement towards the main villages off the region and Mandera (Kenya). Imposed restrictions on trade movement in Gedo, with Belethawa and its surroundings to be most affected. Source: FSNAU & Protection Cluster Civil Insecurity

11 Agriculture Deyr 2010/11 Local Cereal Cereal flow : Sorghum comes from Bay, though the supply reduced following the crop failure in Bay region. Maize is supplied from Dolow Adde (Ethiopia side)

12 Agriculture Regional Trends in Cereal Prices Regional Trend in Sorghum Prices (Bardhere) Regional Trend in Sorghum Prices (Luuq) Factors Influencing Sorghum Prices: Sorghum crop failure in all agro pastoral livelihoods of the region Reduction of sorghum inflow from Bay region following the sorghum harvest failure.

13 Agriculture Regional Trends in Daily Labour Wages Regional Trend Daily Labour Rate (Bardhere) Factors Influencing Wage Labour: Increased agricultural labour activities in riverine livelihoods as a result of interventions (canal rehabilitation, bush clearance, etc.) from last Gu season High inflow of casual labourers from agropastoral zones and neighboring regions (Bay, Bakool) into the riverine areas pushing the labour wages down. Regional Trend in Daily Labour Rate (Luuq)

14 Agriculture Regional Trends in Terms of Trade (Labour/Cereal) Regional Trend in Daily Labour Rate / Sorghum (Bardhere) : 6 kg/daily wage Regional Trend in Daily Labour Rate/ Sorghum (Luuq): 8 kg/daily wage Factors Influencing ToT: High sorghum prices. Decrease in labour wage rates.

15 Deterioration of both pasture and water conditions. Abnormal migration of livestock to Juba and Ethiopia (Weeb and Mooyaale) Deteriorating livestock body condition, with the exception of camel. Livestock Rangeland Conditions, Water and Livestock Migration

18 Livestock Regional Trends in Local Goat Prices Regional Trends in Local Quality Goat Prices (Bardhere) Regional Trends in Local Quality Goat Prices (Luuq) Factors Influencing L.Goats Prices: Poor livestock body conditions Low demand on livestock after the end of Hajj period.

19 Livestock Regional Trends in Terms of Trade (Goat/Cereal) Regional Trends in Terms of Trade between local goat/red sorghum (Bardhere) Factors Influencing ToT High cereal prices Decreased livestock prices due to poor body conditions and high supply on the markets. Regional Trends in Terms of Trade between local goat/red sorghum (Luuq)

20 Trends in Imported Commodity Prices Prices of most imported commodities remained relatively stable in the last six months Factors Influencing Commercial Import Prices: Increased commercial imports after the end of Monsoon season Removal of road check-points between Mogadishu and Gedo. Improved road accessibility (Mido Road). Markets Gedo: Imported Commodity Prices compared to Exchange Rate

Destitution/Displacement: No direct displacement for all rural livelihoods. Coping: Deteriorating coping strategies Livelihood Assets: Livestock is deteriorating, cattle herd size significantly below BL Main Contributing Factors: Significantly reduced cereal production (22% of PWA) with a complete sorghum failure. Poor pasture and water access/availability Decreasing trend for cattle and sheep/goat (< 30% of baseline levels) but sustained camel herds Decreased livestock reproduction and low milk production Increased cereal prices and deteriorated terms of trade (6 –8kg of sorghum/daily wage and 40 –42kg of sorghum/goat) Decreased number of saleable animals and reduced livestock prices Abnormal livestock migration (towards Juba and Somali State of Ethiopia) and reduced milk availability MAP 3: LIVELIOOD ZONES MAP 1: IPC, Gu 2010MAP 2: IPC, Deyr 2010/11
