Namibian livestock owners embrace new land management and marketing techniques
The economy of Namibia depends heavily on its livestock sector. Goats, sheep and cattle easily outnumber people in a nation nearly twice the size of California. Livestock owners in the Northern Communal Areas (NCAs) support about 70 percent of the country's population.
Troubled by fears of foot and mouth disease (an infectious and potentially fatal virus that affects cloven-hoofed animals) and other animal-borne epidemics, the Government of Namibia maintains a fence that separates much of northern Namibia—where the bulk of the nation's farmers live—from areas in the south that have been certified to be free of foot and mouth disease.
