dc.descriptionTo foster a safer and more sustainable agricultural sector, legislative measures are necessary to create industry standards that benefit both people and planet. As a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO), Namibia adheres to the agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures (WTO-SPS) and is a participant in the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC), as well as the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH). Although the country has numerous pieces of legislation for agricultural, environmental and chemical management, these laws are fragmented and outdated, creating challenges in compliance with international agreements and trade regulations. In addition, these existing laws are inadequate in preventing the effective protection of plant, animal, and soil health, highlighting the need to improve guidelines to better regulate these sectors. In this context, the Ministry of Agriculture, Water, and Land Reform (MAWLR) of Namibia recognized the need for updated national legislation and sought the support of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to revise and align existing laws to meet international standards.
