I have visited that Commission. If you go there, you realise that the difference between them and our Kenya Meat Commission in Athi River is technology - the value addition. They have gone a long way to ensure they use technology to add value to their livestock products. As a result, Botswana is now a major supplier of livestock products. Their GPD, apart from the minerals, gets a lot of money from livestock sales. The Board will also make use of technology to add value to livestock products and in a way assist our farmers."}
