Africa-Press – Angola. Cuvango – The municipal administrator of Cuvango, Luis Paulo Ndala, expressed on Monday in Cuvango that the municipality aims to become the main agricultural and continental fishing hub of the Huila province.
With more than 300,000 hectares available for agriculture and two permanent watercourses, namely the Cubango and Cutato rivers, extending for more than 170 kilometers, Cuvango has attracted the interest of investors in these two areas in recent years.
Speaking to the press, the administrator said that actions aimed at increasing agricultural production and promoting continental fishing have been implemented for two years through direct support to farmers and fishermen, as well as reduced bureaucracy in access to land.
According to Luís Paulo Ndala, the municipality has natural potential, namely arable land and water resources, factors that, combined with appropriate public policies, place it in a privileged position in the province’s productive sector.
The administrator said that a process is currently underway to organize producers into cooperatives, along with improvements to production support infrastructure, with a view to facilitating the flow of products and attracting private investment.
Located 356 kilometers east of Lubango, the capital of Huíla province, Cuvango has cultivated more than 3,000 hectares in the current agricultural year, 800 of which are exclusively dedicated to cereals.
