Namibia considers FMD levy to strengthen livestock disease funding
Namibia is considering a new foot-and-mouth disease levy to raise funds to protect the livestock industry against the growing threat of the disease. The proposed temporary levy, paid by both livestock buyers and sellers, could be around 0.76% of the value of a livestock transaction, though the final rate has not yet been confirmed and the measure is still under consultation.
