SA Stoetbeeste mag weer na Namibië uitgevoer word
Namibië het die verbod op die invoer van vee uit Suid-Afrika opgehef omdat Suid-Afrika sy bek-en-klouseer vrye status herwin het.
As gevolg van die agterstand in aansoeke, is sewe werksdae nodig om ’n permit te kan uitreik, berig die Republikein. Die Namibië Landbou-unie (NLU) het bekend gemaak dat onderhandelinge oor die invoervereistes van skape, bokke en beeste vir slagdoeleindes steeds aan die gang is.
Telers kan die NLU se webtuiste by www.agrinamibia.com.na besoek vir ’n dokument met die invoervereistes, die aansoekvorms en ander relevante inligting.
