BIOMASS: The Ministry will spend N$155.4 million to support the conversion of bush biomass into value-added products such as charcoal, woodchips, firewood and biochar during the 2026-2027 financial year. The initiative aims to curb bush encroachment while promoting sustainable rangeland management, supported by a national forestry inventory.

To strengthen community participation in forestry, the Ministry plans to gazette three community forests covering approximately 360,000 hectares. It will also review the Forest Act and its regulations to address emerging and contemporary challenges.

In addition, the Ministry is developing a national wildfire management policy to strengthen fire prevention and control measures at national level.
