The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Land Reform (MAFWLR) has issued a state of alert over an invasion of locust swarms in some parts of the Hardap Region. 

Domestic animals in communal areas will soon be equipped with reflectors to make them more visible at night and to prevent accidents.

Works and Transport Minister Veikko Nekundi said the government is in the process of procuring reflectors for domestic animals in communal areas where they roam freely.
