Description:

Baseline Assessment for the De-Bushing Programme in Namibia.

Summary / Notes:

This baseline study attempts to sketch the situation on the ground in mid-2014 in terms of the three major Programme outcomes: a. Institutional and political framework conditions across the various relevant administrative levels that enables increased capacity of land owners to deal with encroacher bush sustainably, b. Services that provide farmers with targeted advice and information on how to de-bush and utilise the wood, and c. Value addition to wood harvested from encroacher bush and obtained while de-bushing or thinning bush on the farm.
