The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Land Reform official (MAFWLR), launched Namibia's One Country-One Priority Product (OCOP) Initiative, with mahangu-pearl millet designated as Namibia's priority product.

The Namibian Agronomic Board (NAB) has reminded commercial and surplus producers to apply for the grain seeds and fertilisers subsidy for the 2024/2025 planting season.

The subsidy programme ends on February 15.
