For the past 3 decades, Somaliland has been struggling, politically, socio-economy, environmentally and socially to make impact within their development. the struggle started from when Somaliland regained its independence from Somalia, which they emerged at the year of 1960.

After years of steady development, peace and stability the country is still not strong economically, people suffer and have minimum daily income. the Ministry of planning and National Development stated in its National Development Plan 2 that the GDP of the country is estimated as USD400 per capita in 2012. with little growth GDP of the past ten years.

Droughts are one of the most disaster that has been continuously affected the rural development and reduce its livestock production as well their crop farming production.

Lack of investment, human capital development and economic development has make Somaliland one of the poorest countries in the world.

Although the country is enjoying social stability and peace yet the economically country suffer more.

However, despite the adversity, money remittances, aid and livestock mark up 90% of countries GDP and this is why it is important to take account the challenges and opportunities of these sources to produce a futuristic sustainable long time economic growth.
