STORYLINE:
In Midi, a coastal district in Yemen's northwestern province of Hajjah, after months of feeding, shepherding, and taking care of their livestock, the farmers discovered that selling their herds was the biggest challenge in the war-ravaged country.
Livestock farmers have to deal with soaring prices of fodders and a severe fuel shortage.
Now they are under additional strains as a result of the shrinking demand brought on by widespread poverty.
Moreover, the civil war and the chaos and division it causes have made it difficult for livestock or grain to circulate in the poor Arab country.
