The government, through the Ministry of Agriculture, Water, and Land Reform, plans to acquire two additional commercial farms in the Aminuis Constituency of the Omaheke Region. This decision comes in response to unfavorable weather conditions and an increasing number of livestock in the area.

The Minister of Agriculture, Water, and Land Reform has emphasized the importance of a strategic approach to agriculture, water management, and land reform in Namibia, highlighting their interconnectedness as pillars of the nation's development.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Water, and Land Reform (MAWLR) has proposed that resettlement farmers who demonstrate productivity be eligible to receive a title to the land. 

This initiative aims to transform them from leaseholders with the government as landlords into owners of a tangible asset.

National Assembly MPs have set aside their political differences to support the Popular Democratic Movement (PDM) Diederik Vries' motion that calls for urgent measures to address the food security situation in the country.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Water, and Land Reform officially handed over the Rundu abattoir to MeatCo yesterday.

The abattoir is intended to serve as a market for cattle and small stock farmers in the Kavango East, West, and surrounding regions.
