  • The Case of Honey in Zambia the Case
    Small-scale with outstanding economic potential enterprises woodland-based In some countries, honey and beeswax are so important the term ‘beekeeping’ appears in the titles of some government ministries. The significance of honey and beeswax in local livelihoods is nowhere more apparent than in the Miombo woodlands of southern Africa. Bee-keeping is a vital source of income for many poor and remote rural producers throughout the Miombo, often because it is highly suited to small scale farming. This detailed Non-Timber Forest Product study from Zambia examines beekeeping’s livelihood role from a range of perspectives, including market factors, production methods and measures for harnessing beekeeping to help reduce poverty.

  • 2.4 Zambia Railway Assessment
    2.4 Zambia Railway Assessment Travel Time Matrix Railway Companies and Consortia Capacity Table Key Route Information Key Stations The Zambia National Railways are very important to the economy of the country as it is a bulk carrier with less effect on the environment than many other transport modes. The Government intends to expand its railway network in the country to develop the surface transport sector. Through the Ministry of Transport, a new statutory instrument (SI) was passed, which requires industries to move 30% of their carriage by rail. This is in a bid to decongest the road sector and possibly reduce the damage done by heavy duty trucks on Zambian roads. The development of rail routes linking important exit points is not only vital for facilitating smooth access to the outside but also for the overall boosting of trade in the sub-region and making Zambia a competitive country for business. Traditionally, the Zambian railways have generally operated well below their original design capacity, yet significant investment is underway to increase their volumes by investing in track conditions, increase locomotive and wagon availability and increase operating capital. The rail network remains the dominant mode of transportation for goods on the local and international routes but is under-utilized. The main railway lines are the Zambia Railways, owned by Government and the TAZARA line, linking Zambia with Tanzania, and jointly owned by the Zambian and Tanzanian governments. The opening of the Chipata-Mchinji railway link provides connectivity into the Malawi and Mozambique railway network and further connects Zambia to the port of Nacala.

  • Informal Cross Border Food Trade in Southern Africa Issue 7 March 2005
    Informal Cross Border Food Trade In Southern Africa Issue 7 March 2005 Highlights • Over 102,000 MT of maize, 17,000 MT of rice and 17,000 MT of bean trade have been recorded since July as 2004/05 marketing season comes to an end. • Harvest expectations and the maize export ban in Zambia will significantly influence the volume and direction of flow of trade in the new marketing season. Informal Cross Border Trade Flow Overview As of the end of March, the end of the agricultural marketing season Fig 1. Recorded Informal Cross Border Trade In DRC, for most Southern African Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Zambia & Zimbabwe countries, the informal cross border food trade monitoring initiative had captured nearly 16000 102,000 MT of unrecorded trade in maize; close to 17,000 MT of 14000 trade in rice and 17,000 MT trade in beans in the six monitored 12000 countries of Mozambique, Malawi, 10000 Tanzania, Zambia, DRC and ns Rice Zimbabwe. The monitoring 8000 Maiz e system has been in place for only ic To nine months (July 2004 to March Beans Metr 6000 2005) and so actual volumes for the entire 2004/05 marketing 4000 season would be higher if the uncovered period April to June 2000 2004 were included. 0 As shown in figure 1, maize was July Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar the most traded commodity. Nearly equal volumes of rice and beans were traded during the period and monthly variations Source: FEWS NET and WFP Malawi and TSC were less significant than for maize Summary of Maize Trade : July 2004 –March 2005 Figure 2 summarises the flows and volumes of maize trade between July 2004 and March 2005.
