Kavango East Region governor, Julius Hambyuka, says fish farmers in the region are facing daunting challenges due to a shortage of fish feed, which is mostly sourced from outside the country.
Hambyuka made these remarks on Monday while visiting three fish farming projects across the region, where he held joint meetings with groups of farmers, as well as separate one-on-one engagements to better understand their individual operations, challenges and support needs.
He said the idea for these visits came after realising that despite Kavango East being located along a permanent river with abundant fish resources, the region cannot solely rely only on river fishing and must strengthen fish farming to ensure a consistent supply.
