The manager at Musese Green Scheme in the Kavango West Region says ongoing power cuts, high demand charges, and exorbitant import fees are hampering significant progress at the irrigation project. 

The manager at the Musese Green Scheme in the Kavango West, Winfried Metzger, is optimistic about a good harvest this year, despite constant power outages.

Poor rainfall during the planting forced the project to rely on machinery for watering the maize almost on a daily basis.
