Famine in Idia was a terrible problem that affected people in the 1960s. The country depended so much on the aid the United States was sending. Later droughts in 1965 and 1966 worsen the problem. International aid arrived from many countries to prevent starvation. Agriculture production crashed. There was no water to use in the farm fields.
