Berseba Constituency farmers called for a review of idle resettlement farms as limited grazing land put pressure on communal farmers.

They voiced these concerns at a recent town hall meeting with ||Kharas Governor Dawid Gertze.

A young farmer in the Aminuis Constituency, Richard Kavari, has managed to produce quality stud animals, despite practicing in a communal area.

Stud farming has been a vital economic lifeline for him and his family.

Roaming predators, a limited underground water supply, and the abundance of a poisonous plant known locally as Gifblaar or Otjikurioma continue to impact commercial farming operations in rural communal areas.

The Deputy Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Land Reform, Ruth Masake, has encouraged farming communities in the Omaheke Region to embrace continuous improvement in livestock breeding.

Masake was speaking at the 5th annual RiVeKa livestock production auction at Okorukambe.
