UN News reported on drought preparation across Central America's Dry Corridor, where farming families depend heavily on rainfall. The report profiled Anastacio Martínez Gómez, a 73-year-old farmer in southwestern Honduras who has spent most of his life working the land. The feature says farming households in the Dry Corridor live at the mercy of the rains, and that experience alone can only take farmers so far. The piece is an explainer and does not describe a specific new policy decision or event.
