    FRIDAY BRIEF WEEK 19, 2015 THIS Week’s Highlights ZNFU HOLDS MEETING OF COUNCIL FARM WORKERS AWARDED DURING LABOUR DAY CELEBRATIONS APPSA TO SUPPORT FARMERS FARMERS ADVISED TO GROW SOLID STEMMED BAMBOOS …... SEE DETAILED UPDATES BELOW…… INDUSTRY UPDATES/ALERTS ZNFU HOLDS MEETING OF COUNCIL The Zambia National Farmers ‘Union (ZNFU) held its Meeting of Council on Thursday, 7th May, 2015 at the Mulungushi International Conference Centre (MICC). The meeting which brought in representatives from all the Union’s membership categories was chaired by the ZNFU president Dr. Evelyn Nguleka. The ZNFU Meeting of Council is held annually to deliberate on issues that affect the Union and the entire agricultural sector. During the deliberations, the chairperson informed the meeting that the government has since recognised the Union as a major stakeholder in the country’s Agricultural development. This follows the Union’s engagement of key government Ministries in a series of high profile dialogue meetings which have taken after the appointment of a new cabinet by the Republican President Mr. Edgar C. Lungu. She said that this recognition has even prompted government to further enhance collaboration with the Union to pilot the usage of the Visa card in the forthcoming Farmer Input Support Program (FISP) disbursement season, target to service at least 240,000 beneficiaries. The ZNFU meeting of Council attracted more than 120 councillors drawn from all the affiliated members countrywide. FARM WORKERS AWARDED DURING LABOUR DAY CELEBRATIONS A number of farm workers in Mkushi have deservedly been awarded with different gifts for their dedication to duty at the just-ended Labour Day celebrations in the District.

  • Ministerial Statement the Status of FMD Countrywide.Pdf
    MINISTERIAL STATEMENT ON STATUS OF FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE COUNTRYWIDE BY THE MINISTER OF FISHERIES AND LIVESTOCK, MS MULENGA, MP Madam Speaker, I wish to thank you and the Leader of Government Business in the House, Her Honour the Vice-President, for giving me this opportunity to render a ministerial statement to update this august House and, indeed, the nation on the status of the foot and mouth disease (FMD) in the country and the measures taken so far to control the disease. This statement will also address the concern of the general public on this disease of socio-economic importance to the country. Madam Speaker, I wish to inform the House that there is an ongoing outbreak of FMD in the country. The House may wish to note that the first case was reported on 22 nd March, 2018, in Chisamba District and the disease was reported on fourteen farms. Later in the same month, the disease spread to Chibombo District. Experts from my ministry conducted laboratory diagnosis and confirmed the disease to be FMD caused by FMD virus serotype ‘0’ which was closely related to that isolated in Eastern Africa. This was the first time this particular virus was isolated and identified in the Central Zambia. Previously, FMD control programmes in the country were targeted at the FMD serotype SAT 1, SAT 2 and SAT 3. For this reason, the livestock population in the affected districts were highly naive, since they have never been exposed, to this new serotype and they had no previous vaccinations. Madam, allow me now to dwell on FMD symptoms and risk factors.

  • Smallholder Farmers' Perceptions on Groundnut

Received 2 October, 2015; Accepted 19 October, 2015 The inclusion of legume crops in cropping systems has been shown to improve soil fertility and productivity, but the adoption rate is low among many smallholder farmers. A study to determine the perceptions of the smallholder farmers on groundnut production, use of inputs and cropping systems was conducted in Chisamba District, Zambia. Using a multi-stage sampling technique, 164 farmers from 20 villages within 11 agricultural camps in two agricultural blocks were randomly chosen for the study. Questionnaires were administered to only smallholder farmers who cultivated groundnuts. Results showed that the cropping systems used by smallholder farmers in Chisamba District were crop rotation (90%), mixed-intercropping (5%) and sole-cropping (5%). Groundnut production was mainly undertaken by female smallholder farmers (71%) on land averaging 1.68 ha.

  • SUMMARY REPORT Assessment of the Zambian Barbet for Red Listing Purposes
    SUMMARY REPORT Assessment of the Zambian Barbet for Red Listing Purposes Lizanne Roxburgh December 2007 Zambian Ornithological Society, PO Box 33944, Lusaka, Zambia AND Percy FitzPatrick Institute of African Ornithology, University of Cape Town, Rondebosch, South Africa Email: [email protected] Sponsored by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, the UK Partner of BirdLife, and the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and the African Bird Club Assessment of the Zambian Barbet for Red Listing Purposes 1. SUMMARY The Zambian barbet is confined to the Southern and Central provinces of Zambia, and is Zambia’s only endemic bird species. The 2004 IUCN Red List Category for Zambian barbet is Near Threatened, but their current status, and distribution were poorly known. Therefore systematic surveys of this species were begun in 2006, in three regions: 1) the Kafue Flats and adjacent areas, 2) Kafue National Park (KNP), and 3) the eastern part of their range. During the surveys, I drove along roads and tracks, and collected data on habitat suitability for Zambian barbets at approximately 5 km intervals. I visited sites in 23 of the 28 quarter degree squares where barbets were historically seen. Sites were classified as suitable depending on the tree species composition and presence of sycamore fig trees, upon which Zambian barbets are highly dependent. I determined the habitat suitability of 397 sites. I searched for barbets in areas of suitable habitat by using playback of their calls and the calls of black-collared barbets. These two barbet species react to each others calls in regions where their distribution overlaps.

  • Promoting Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises in Beekeeping in Zambia's Central Province

B.3 and Malunga M. M.1 1Department of Political and Administrative Studies, School of Social Science, Mulungushi University P. O. Box 80415, Great North Road Campus Kabwe, Zambia. 2Department of Economics, School of Social Science, Mulungushi University P. O. Box 80415, Great North Road Campus Kabwe, Zambia. 3Faculty of Agriculture, School of Agriculture and Natural Resource, Mulungushi University P. O. Box 80415, Great North Road Campus Kabwe, Zambia. Received 13 May, 2017; Accepted 4 July, 2017 Beekeeping has been a thriving enterprise among farmers in selected parts of Zambia. However, despite its enormous potential for transforming rural communities and through income generation, the beekeeping sector has experienced stunted growth for many years (or has not experienced meaningful growth for many years). Therefore, this study investigates the nature of beekeeping in selected parts of Zambia’s Central Province in order to identify the challenges being faced and the possibility of establishing a business incubation centre at Mulungushi University if the current supporting facilities are not optimal. The study reveals that there is a growing interest among the farmers to venture into beekeeping and the majority regard it as an alternative venture for income generation.
