Hard-set
Dear teachers,
I don't see the word 'hardset' in Longman english dictiionary.
Is it not usually used in contemporary English?
I saw the word in a workbook.
For the sentence, please see below.

Developing countries, particularly those in Africa which have been hardset hit by desertification,
fought in vain to win firm commitments for new funding from wealthier nations.

Thank you for your advice.
I'm sometimes confused when I study English with workbooks written by Japanese writer.
