Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The Government intends to rehabilitate 800 dip tanks across the country and build 1 500 new dip tanks this year.<\/p>\n

This was said by Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Rural Development Permanent Secretary John Basera on Sunday while speaking at Venice in Mhondoro-Ngezi district during the official launch of the national war against the January Disease. The Herald quoted Basera as saying:<\/p>\n

If we win the war against January disease, we are guaranteed as a nation to meet Vision 2030 way back before the targeted year.<\/p>\n

As we target to achieve this, we have put in place plans to rehabilitate dip tanks and build new dip tanks by June this year.<\/p>\n

Currently, we have 4 000 dip tanks countrywide and 80 percent of these are functional.<\/p>\n

The remaining 20 percent is targeted to be rehabilitated by June this year as we seriously intensify the fight again January Disease.<\/p>\n

We want to increase our herd to six million from 5.4 million this year. This target can also be protected if we construct 1 500 new dip tanks countrywide.<\/p>\n

Tick-borne diseases, among them January Disease (theileriosis), have killed at least 500 000 cattle in Zimbabwe in the past five years.<\/p>\n
