Pula, pula nkgodise!

The scientific calculations are that the rainfall will be of normal to above normal in some parts of the country.  This indeed is welcome news especially after the painfull drought of recent years which left a trail of despair.

The severe drought of the past three years especially has seen the collapse of many government programmes such as backyard gardens, and ISPAAD due of the El-Nino phenomenon. The nation has seen the worst crop production failure since that of the 1960s. The pride of Motswana and the main source of income, cattle and other livestock have died in shocking numbers because of shortage of grazing land and no water.
