INTER­ WELLFIELD ·i i,.. CO'ISULT in association with BRITISH GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Keyworth, Nottingham, UK MATSHENG AREA GROUNDWATER INVESTIGATION Technical Report T9 August 1995 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. Usable potable water supplies are limited to the Matsheng village areas. Economic fresh water supplies identified during recent groundwater investigations are located in village areas of Lokgwabe and Lehututu. Brackish water supplies identified outside the village areas are not available for use by livestock using communal grazing areas as they are either in areas already occupied or in areas with other land use designations. 2. No significant usable water supplies were identified in the communal grazing areas through the MAGI programme, and based on the available geophysical evidence, the chances of striking groundwater supplies for livestock in Matsheng communal areas are poor. 3. Total water consumption in the Matsheng area during the past year (to May 1995) is estimated at 254,200m' (697 m' per day). Of this amount about 150,000 m' (60%) are consumed by livestock watered at about 150 wells, boreholes and dams on pans. 4. Matsheng village households using public standpipes consume about 670 litres per household per week, or 20 litres per person per day (67% of the 30 litre DWA standard rate for rural village standpipe users). Residents of the four RAD settlements served by council bowsers received a ration of about 7 litres per person per day, or just 23% of the DWA standard.

  • Perceptions and Attitudes of Communities on Socio-Economic
    Tselaesele et al. /Journal of Camelid Science 2021, 14 (1): 52-66 http://www.isocard.net/en/journal Perceptions and attitudes of communities on socio-economic importance of camels and consumption of camel milk and camel milk products in Kgalagadi District, Botswana Nelson Tselaesele1*, Eyassu Seifu2, Moenyane Molapisi2, Wame Boitumelo3, Ayana Angassa4, Keneilwe Kgosikoma5, Demel Teketay4, Bonno Sekwati-Monang2, Ezekiel Chimbombi6, Rosemary Kobue-Lekalake2, Geremew Bultosa2, Gulelat Desse Haki2, Witness Mojeremane5, Katsane Kgaudi7, Boitumelo Mokobi2 1Department of Agricultural Extension and Rural Development, Botswana University of Agriculture and Natural Resources (BUAN); 2Department Food Science and Technology, BUAN; 3Department of Animal Science and Production, BUAN; 4Department of Range and Forest Resources, BUAN; 5Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics, BUAN; 6Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering, BUAN; 7Tsabong Unified Secondary School. Abstract Camels were introduced to Botswana in the early twentieth century as a means of transport for the Botswana Police Service in the Kgalagadi District. This service was discontinued in the early 1980s and the camels were handed over to communities in the district for ecotourism activities. Since their introduction in Botswana, camels were regarded as government property and were never taken as alternative livelihood option that can alleviate poverty by providing milk and other products as is the case in other countries. This study explores the prospects of utilization of camel milk and milk products by assessing perceptions and attitudes of communities on the socio-economic importance of camels, consumption preferences for camel milk and value-added milk products. A combination of qualitative and quantitative methods was used to address the objectives of the research.

    STAKEHOLDER PERSPECTIVES ON THE POTENTIAL FOR COMMUNITY-BASED ECOTOURISM DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT FOR THE KGALAGADI TRANSFRONTIER PARK IN BOTSWANA By NAOMI NOMSA MOSWETE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2009 1 © 2009 Naomi Nomsa Moswete 2 To the memory of my beloved parents: Morwadi and Botha Moatshe, and to my husband, Mokgweetsi for his constant love and support during my academic journey. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My study program was made possible by the generous support of many individuals and organizations, which aided and financed this research. I am particularly indebted to the W.K. Kellogg Foundation via Leadership Initiatives for Southern Africa (LISA) without whom I could not have embarked on and completed this project. The study is a contribution to the Foundation’s mission in support of the development of healthy and sustainable rural communities in Southern Africa. I am deeply indebted to the Kellogg Foundation, which played a key role in all stages of my doctoral program – from course work to field data collection and analysis. I extend my sincere appreciation to all staff at AED in Botswana (Imelda, Disa, Thandi, Moniemang), and those in Washington DC, for the invaluable support they granted me throughout my academic and spiritual journeys. I would like to express my profound gratitude to Viwe Mtshontshi and Phillip Hesser for the patience, cooperation and kind support accorded me throughout my doctoral study at the University of Florida. I also thank the University of Botswana, which played an important role throughout this program.

  • Spatial Distribution of Kalahari Common Eland, Gemsbok and Blue Wildebeest in Relation to Free-Ranging Livestock Grazing Gradient and Land Use, Botswana
    Spatial distribution of Kalahari Common Eland, Gemsbok and Blue Wildebeest in relation to free-ranging livestock grazing gradient and land use, Botswana. Akanyang L.1, Carver S.1 and Benton T. G.2 1School of Geography, Faculty of the Environment, University of Leeds. 2School of Biology, Faculty of Biological Sciences University of Leeds. January 11, 2017 Summary Large herbivores distributions within pastoralism areas and surrounding protected areas are restricted by changing land use. We studied the spatial distribution of three large herbivores in relation to livestock grazing gradient during the wet and dry seasons, using spoor information, roads side counts, and vegetation surveys. Most livestock grazing distribution were mainly closer to settlements, cattle posts in Communal Grazing Areas, with very few observations in Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs). Large herbivores were sensitive to livestock grazing intensity and human-induced risk hence concentrated in WMAs. Suggesting that human-induced risk, such illegal hunting, human disturbance are most significant factors influencing large herbivores distribution. KEYWORDS: large herbivores, spatial distribution pattern, Pastoralism, Kalahari, human-induced risk Extended Abstract 1.1 Introduction Livestock and wildlife share land, water and forage resources in savanna rangelands (Young et al., 2005) In most of Africa, especially in Kalahari, Botswana, human settlements and pastoralism activities have invaded wildlife habitat, resulting into pastoralists, free ranging livestock and large herbivores interactions. Land use changes, such as settlements and Pastoralism activities influence the distribution of large herbivores in Communal Grazing Areas (CGAs) and their surrounding Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs). However, few studies have really measured the resource partitioning ability and spatial distribution patterns between free ranging livestock and large herbivores in southern African savanna.
