The Country Of Ethiopia

Ethiopia is an African country that has been known to have severe problems with drought and poverty. Many of the people of Ethiopia are subsistence farmers who can easily face problems like starvation when crops are insufficient. The desert climate of Ethiopia leaves farmers at risk of having their crops die off or never grow at all and can leave farmers and their families in serious trouble. The government of Ethiopia tries to address these issues by providing education on irrigation and the tools necessary for farmers to get by, including emergency food aid, but because of military turmoil it can be difficult for the government of Ethiopia to provide enough support. Often the needed food and tools for the farmers of Ethiopia comes from outside charity groups or NGO’s, non-governmental organizations, that bring in donated food supplies, seeds, and tools from around the world to help the starving farmers of Ethiopia get their crops growing again. In the 1980’s there was a major drought in Ethiopia that led to a terrible famine from which the country has never really recovered.
