The biggest obstacle facing farmers in the districts of Hodiedah governorate is the scarcity of water resulting from the depletion of groundwater through traditional irrigation methods, in addition to the high prices of diesel and the worsening crisis of petroleum derivatives, which has caused an agricultural recession. Farmers heavily rely on diesel to operate pumps for irrigating crops.

These obstacles have led to the destruction of agricultural crops, the spread of drought, and the weakening of farmers' profits, making it impossible for them to afford diesel fuel.

Therefore, in order to rescue farmers from poverty, protect groundwater reservoirs from random consumption, and ensure that plants receive proper and economical irrigation, Namaa Small & Microfinance Foundation has financed farmers in several districts of Hodiedah governorate with solar systems, in addition to providing their lands with drip irrigation networks.

This has helped these farmers harvest their crops and revive their agricultural yields, as their lands were on the verge of becoming barren. It has also allowed them to completely eliminate their dependence on diesel fuel.

Since 2017, Namaa Small and Microfinance Foundation has been financing farmers with solar energy systems. The foundation offers highly flexible repayment plans tailored to the specific conditions and characteristics of farmers' crops. The repayment period ranges from one to two years, depending on the farmers' capabilities and the types of crops they cultivate.

The Namaa Foundation has financed farmers with solar panels for a total amount of 545,000,000 Yemeni rials, benefiting 75 farmers in the following districts: Bajil, Al Zaydiyah, Alqanawis, Addahi, Almarawi'ah, Al-ktea'a, Asalif, and Al-Kudn.

Thanks to the financial support provided by Nama'a, farmers in these directorates have experienced a significant improvement in their agricultural practices. They have been able to cultivate a diverse range of vegetable crops, including cucumber, radish, arugula, molokhia, and okra, in significant quantities. This has not only allowed them to achieve self-sufficiency but has also significantly increased their profits. As a result, farmers have successfully repaid all their installments, further strengthening their economic stability and ensuring the long-term sustainability of their farming operations.
