Kavango Region

Kavango Region

Kavango is one of the thirteen regions of Namibia. Because of its rather higher rainfall than most other parts of Namibia, this region has definite agricultural potential for the cultivation of a variety of crops. There is also potential for organised forestry and agro-forestry, which should stimulate furniture making and related industries.

In the north, Kavango borders the Cuando Cubango Province of Angola, and in the southeast it borders the North-West District of Botswana. Domestically, it borders the following regions:

  • Caprivi – east
  • Otjozondjupa – south
  • Oshikoto – west
  • Ohangwena – northwest

Famous quotes containing the word region:

    Alvina felt herself swept ... into a dusky region where men had dark faces and translucent yellow eyes, where all speech was foreign, and life was not her life. It was as if she had fallen from her own world on to another, darker star, where meanings were all changed.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
