Prime Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila says the government is prepared for the imminent drought due to the poor rainfall received this rainy season. 

Subsistence farmers in the Kavango East Region are worried that they might face drought this year due to a lack of rain.

It has been three weeks since there has been no rain.

The rain came on time this season, so the farmers thought, and they were hopeful of good yields this time around.

Farmers in the Oshana Region are worried about food insecurity because some areas of the region are still flooded and crops have been submerged by water.

The opposite is that crops in some fields have begun to wilt due to insufficient rain.
