GOVERNMENT intends to increase livestock and fisheries production to satisfy and exceed national requirements for both human consumption and industrial use. 

Addressing a post-Cabinet briefing on Tuesday, Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Minister Monica Mutsvangwa said: 

“Cabinet wishes to inform the nation that the strategic objective is to sustainably increase livestock and fisheries production to satisfy and exceed national requirements for both human consumption and industrial use. 

“The Livestock Recovery and Growth Plan, as well as the Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Development Plan, will receive funding from the Treasury as well as from the private sector.” 

She said the plan will also involve genetics and access to forage and pasture, as well as the reduction in disease-induced mortality.
