The Directorate of Veterinary Services in the Ministry of Agriculture, Water, and Forestry reported an outbreak of lumpy skin disease in Okakarara Constituency.

The government has restricted the movement of cattle in Omaheke's Rietfontein area following an outbreak of lumpy skin disease.

This was confirmed by a state veterinarian, Dr. Seuakouje Veii, in an interview with the nbc News team.

Following a recent outbreak of lumpy skin disease in the Otjombinde Constituency, the State Veterinary Office has launched a two-week vaccination campaign that started last week.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Water and Land Reform has announced an outbreak of lumpy skin disease in the Otjombinde Constituency of the Epukiro veterinary district.

A one-day farmers' day event aimed at equipping farmers with knowledge on vaccines and livestock diseases was poorly attended by farmers in the Okakarara constituency.

This is even though the Otjozondjupa Region is battling an outbreak of lumpy skin disease.
