dcterms.descriptionSomalia's banana industry, the country's second most important foreign exchange earner after livestock, has been devastated by flooding considered to have been caused by the El Niño weather phenomenon (see Spore 75) and this year's exports are expected to be less than half their 1997 level. Floods have waterlogged plantations and swept away secondary roads making it impossible to transport bananas to port. Since October 1997 there have been virtually no exports.
