Low rains threaten household food security

Unlike in the past, the northern part of Botswana continues to experience low rainfalls with the situation being worse this ploughing season which comes to an end next week, but farmers are still hopeful to receive the last drops.

In an interview with Mmegi, the District Commissioner for the North East District (NED), Keabetswe Lesiela, said only a few people managed to plough this ploughing season, something that will impact badly on the district’s economy.
