Agriculture remains the backbone of many economies.

These were the views of the Chief Agriculture Technician in the Agriculture, Water, and Land Reform Ministry, George Haufiku, who, in an interview with nbc News, encouraged livestock farmers to select quality breeds rather than farm simply for the purpose of multiplication.

The Ongwediva Annual Trade Fair hosts the agricultural sector, with fine-quality breeds of cattle, goats, and sheep displayed for sale.

Haufiku says good breeds result in increased quality of meat and milk and ensure genetic diversity.

The Kilimanjaro Boxing Academy is excited to announce that they will be hosting regional boxing clinics in the northern regions of the country. This initiative aims to provide an opportunity for resident boxers in those regions to participate and enhance their skills.

This year's 22nd edition of the Ongwediva Annual Trade Fair attracted a total of 450 exhibitors, among them 14 international exhibitors.

Speaking at the official opening on behalf of President Hage Geingob, the Deputy Minister of Trade and Industrialization, Verna Sinimbo, said the fair has become an integral part of promoting sustainable development for the benefit of current and future generations.
