240216002825 - Proposed Construction and Operation of Megasave Warehouse and Livestock Handling Pens on ~ 5 Ha Plot (EFR 109) at Otjinene Village, Omaheke Region

The proposed development site falls within the Otjinene Village and situated on the periphery of the village in area current allocated for the development of light-industries. The key component of the proposed activity entails the fencing off, construction of livestock handling facility, installation of key (water and power supply) infrastructure, and the sub-sequent operations thereof. During the operation phase of the development, the key activities will entail temporary holding of about 100 cattle of different age-groups prior to auction dates. The objective is to ensure that the livestock receive the necessary welfare services (feed and water supply, and a conducive resting environment) while being prepared for marketing. It is therefore the reason why the facility will be complemented with a warehouse in which all needed licks and feed stock is stored and becomes readily available on-site.
