MACUAMULE, C., NEVES, L., PENZHORN, B.L., MARCOTTY, T. & VAN DEN BOSSCHE, P. 2005. The susceptibility of Trypanosoma congolense isolated in Zambézia Province, Mozambique, to isometamidium chloride, diminazene aceturate and homidium chloride. Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 72:333–338 Resistance to trypanocidal drugs has been detected in various African countries and is a serious impediment to the control of livestock trypanosomosis. To determine whether drug resistant try- panosome strains are present in the Zambézia Province of Mozambique a study was initiated. To assess the effect of the farming system and the drug-use regimen on the development of drug resist- ance, trypanosome isolates were collected from cattle from subsistence and commercial livestock production systems. The susceptibility of seven isolates against isometamidium chloride, dimi- nazene aceturate and homidium chloride was tested in mice using a multiple-dose test. In four of the seven isolates high levels of drug resistance to diminazene aceturate and isometamidium chloride were detected. In most cases the observed levels of drug resistance correlated with the drug-use practices in the particular livestock production system.

  • MOZAMBIQUE Emergency Food Security Assessment Report
    VAC Mozambique National Vulnerability Assessment Committee VAC in collaboration with the SADC FANR Vulnerability Assessment Committee MOZAMBIQUE SADC FANR Vulnerability Vulnerability Assessment Committee Assessment Committee MOZAMBIQUE Emergency Food Security Assessment Report MOZAMBIQUE Some 590,000 people (3% of the population) will require an estimated 48,000MT of cereal emergency food assistance through March 2003. 16 September 2002 Maputo Prepared in with financial support from DFID, WFP and USAID PREFACE This emergency food security assessment is regionally coordinated by the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) Food, Agriculture, and Natural Resources (FANR) Vulnerability Assessment Committee (VAC), in collaboration with international partners (WFP, FEWS NET, SC (UK), CARE, FAO, UNICEF, and IFRC). National VACs in each country - a consortium of government, NGO, and UN agencies - coordinated the assessments locally. This is the first of a series of rolling food security assessments to be conducted in affected countries throughout the region for the duration of the current food crisis. The VAC assessment strategy has two principal axes. First, it uses a sequential process of ‘best- practices’ in assessment and monitoring, drawn from the extensive and varied experience of the VAC partners, to meet a broad range of critical information needs at both the spatial and socio- economic targeting levels. The sequential nature of the approach not only provides richer details of the "access side" of the food security equation, but it adds the very important temporal dimension as well. From an operational (i.e. response) perspective, the latter is critical. Second, by approaching food security assessment through a coordinated, collaborative process, the strategy integrates the most influential assessment and response players into the ongoing effort, thereby gaining privileged access to national and agency datasets and expert technicians and increases the likelihood of consensus between national governments, implementing partners, and major donors.

  • CONSERVATION STATUS of the LION (Panthera Leo) in MOZAMBIQUE
    CONSERVATION STATUS OF THE LION (Panthera leo) IN MOZAMBIQUE _ PHASE 1: PRELIMINARY SURVEY Final Report - October 2008 TITLE: Conservation status of the lion (Panthera leo) in Mozambique – Phase I: Preliminary survey CO-AUTHORS: Philippe Chardonnet, Pascal Mésochina, Pierre-Cyril Renaud, Carlos Bento, Domingo Conjo, Alessandro Fusari, Colleen Begg & Marcelino Foloma PUBLICATION: Maputo, October 2008 SUPPORTED BY: DNAC/MITUR & DNTF/MINAG FUNDED BY: SCI FOUNDATION, CAMPFIRE ASSOCIATION, DNAC/MITUR & IGF FOUNDATION KEY-WORDS: Mozambique – lion – conservation status – status review – inquiries – distribution range – abundance – hunting – conflicts ABSTRACT: The IUCN-SSC organised two regional workshops, one for West and Central Africa (2005) and one for Eastern and Southern Africa (2006), with the intention to gather major stakeholders and to produce regional conservation strategies for the lion. Mozambican authorities, together with local stakeholders, took part in the regional exercise for establishing the Regional Conservation Strategy for the Lion in Eastern and Southern Africa. They recognised the importance of establishing a National Action Plan for the Lion in Mozambique and realized the lack of comprehensive information for reviewing the lion profile in the country. A survey has been launched to update the conservation status of the lion in Mozambique. The final report of this survey is expected to become a comprehensive material for submission as a contribution to a forthcoming National Action Plan workshop. The current report is the product of only the preliminary phase of this survey. The methods used are explained and preliminary results are proposed. A database has been set up to collect and analyse the information available as well as the information generated by specific inquiries.

Mission members traveled extensively and visited all the 10 provinces in the country. This year the Mission was joined by observers from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC). The Mission received full cooperation from relevant Government departments as well as from local donor representatives and Non-Governmental Organizations based in the country. The Mission estimates that the total area planted to cereals and other foodcrops during the 1995/96 production year reached some 3.4 million hectares, 2.7 percent larger than in the previous year. Plantings in some areas were limited by a scarcity of seeds, caused by last year's drought, and by the need for successive re-plantings, due to an irregular pattern of rains. The 1995/96 main season in most parts of the country was characterized by above average levels of precipitation, particularly during the second half of January and the beginning of February.

    Marromeu – Chinde Assessment: 17.04.2019 – 18.04.2019 Action Against Hunger Consorzio Associazioni con il Mozambico European Union Civil Protection Solidarités International Team Rubicon USA Introduction The current brief assessment report has been produced in Beira, Mozambique, with the contribution of the above mentioned organizations. It follows a two-day qualitative assessment carried out in Marromeu, Luabo and Chinde on the 18th and 19th of April, primarily in urban, semi-urban settings and among small communities located on the river bank of the Zambezi river. While limited in its scope, it aims to provide a primary oversight of the situation of communities residing in these districts which were previously not assessed, filling a gap in the assessment data thus far collected post Cyclone Idai. The following brief assessment report consist of three main parts. 1. Rationale and assessment plan 2. Key qualitative findings 3. Recommendations I. Rationale and Assessment plan While responses have been focused thus far on the immediate flood-affected areas in Sofala and Manica provinces, the continued torrential rains in Zambezi province and the subsequent flooding of the Zambezi river and its tributaries were not yet assessed in the districts of Marromeu, Luabo and Chinde. Located between Sofala and Zambezia province, information from these three districts was scarce or even unavailable. With no assessment having been carried out in this area, there was little knowledge of the possible precarious situation of the local populations residing along the river. Initial assessments in the first week following the cyclone indicated that the district of Chinde had lost 658 hectares of agricultural land and 1,361 houses destroyed, in Luabo along the Zambezia river a further 268 hectares were lost and 708 houses destroyed.
