Livestock dominates the agricultural sector, although a sizeable proportion of the population is engaged in subsistence farming of crops such as wheat, maize and millet. Agriculture is becoming increasingly difficult as the years pass and the desert encroaches on previously fertile soil. It has also been seriously damaged by the recurrent drought afflicting the whole region. Manufacturing is mainly devoted to processing of raw materials and agricultural produce. Suits should be worn in winter, safari suits in summer.
