Classification Levy

On request of the Ministry of Agriculture the Meat Board conducted consultations with producers at Oshakati, Rundu and Katima Mulilo during the past week to get inputs regarding the increase of the classification levy.
The Meat Board recommended that the Ministry of Agriculture increase the classification levy from N$10.00 per cattle unit and N$2.00 per sheep to N$15.00 per cattle unit and $3.00 per sheep. Seeing that abattoirs will contribute 50% to this levy, the producer slaughtering at the export abattoirs will pay an additional N$2.50 per cattle unit and 50c per sheep. Supporting consultations in this regard have already taken place with the Abattoir Association of Namibia and the Livestock Producers' Organisation.

Activities of the Meat Board North of the Veterinary Cordon Fence

The Meat Board has decided to increase its activities north of the Veterinary Cordon Fence on a cost-effective basis.
This includes the establishment of three offices at KatimaMulilo, Rundu and Ongwediva respectively, while the region of Kunene North will be served by the office at Ongewediva. The Meat Board's goal with this decision is to stimulate the planned marketing of livestock in the region. It will also increase the perceptibility of the Meat Board in the regions.
