LIMITED TIME CDM INCENTIVE SCHEME FOR ALL EU CATTLE

Botswana Meat Commission (BMC) has introduced Limited Time Incentive scheme for all EU cattle destined for slaughter at BMC Lobatse. These changes are in line with BMC’s commitment of enhancing and incentivising quality beef production in Botswana. This limited offer is effective immediately and up until 31 May 2022.

For better coordination all cattle farmers are requested to book for supply-quotas beforehand by calling +5331510 which specifically deals with booking. BMC commits to a payment turnaround of 14 days. Additional benefits are that, going forth, measly cattle will ONLY attract a penalty of P1/kg as opposed to P11/kg.
