"This will help support the local dairy industry, expand production, develop the value chain and realize downstream value-added
.
It is a domestic measure that can be implemented
.
" The relevant ministries and offices of the Namibian government will discuss the impact of this proposed measure and ensure that all due procedures will be followed when implementing any import restrictions
.
These restrictions will be implemented through the country's imports and legislation
.
Between 2000 and 2007, the Namibian government adopted the Infant Industry Protection (IIP) program to protect the local dairy industry
.
However, according to the regulations of the Southern African Customs Union, the infant industry protection program can only be used to protect smaller economies for a maximum period of eight years
.
In October 2020, the Namibian Dairy Producers Association (DPA) elaborated on the difficulties faced by the industry, including high production costs, the influx of cheap imported dairy products, unfavorable exchange rates, regional and global competition, and low raw milk prices.
, Repeated droughts and poor overall economic conditions in Nagoya, these unfavorable factors have been exacerbated by the new coronavirus pandemic
.
A working group composed of personnel from the Ministry of Agriculture, Dairy Producers Association, Agricultural Alliance, and Agricultural Trade Forum is considering various proposals to save the industry
.
One of them is that as a short-term measure, the Namibian government provides a government subsidy of N$2 per liter of raw milk
.
In total, it needs about 40 million nannies
.
This is conducive to stimulating investment by dairy producers and increasing production, but the proposal cannot be implemented because of the lack of funds from the Namibian government

Schlettwein said the Namibian government is considering various options to help this key industry and important job creators avoid collapse
.
The industry and its subsequent value chain are included in the Harambee Prosperity Plan’s comprehensive agricultural development plan, which will help improve Namibia’s socio-economic well-being, strengthen household food security and nutrition, and create more employment opportunities
.
"This department is very important to the Namibian government
.
In the long run, we believe that the industry needs to be supported, but I also call on the industry to improve the efficiency of its business operations and be competitive and innovative in the future to resist competition

Namibia’s raw milk production is declining at an alarming rate
.
From 2015 to 2018, its average raw milk volume was 24 million liters
.
It will fall to 21 million liters in 2019 and to 17 million liters in 2020
.
The expected milk production in 2021 is 12 million litres
.
That is, in the past four years, the output of the industry has fallen by 50%, which means that the amount of milk provided to processors has been further reduced, and the industrial chain is on the brink of desperation
.
The current feed cost in this industry accounts for 70%-85% of the production cost
