Productivity and machine maintenance
Farmers are advised to purchase machines that yield higher bush feed volumes with minimum operational costs.
• Oil change and lubrication cost
• Labour
• Fuel cost
• Blades replacement cost
• Capital cost (machine price)

Conclusion
✓Due to a change in rainfall patterns, farmers can no longer rely solely on grass.
✓Namibia has unlimited supply of woody biomass.
✓This can provide food security for animals and a relatively low cost.
✓Results from the techno-economic study can be used by farmers informed
decisions.
