Overview of Namwala, Zambia
Namwala is a town in the Southern Province of Zambia, located about 200 kilometers south of the capital, Lusaka, in the hinterland of the Kafue Plains. It has agriculture and livestock as the backbone of its economy, and is one of Zambia's important maize, cotton and tobacco producing areas.
Geographical and climatic features
Namwala has a savannah climate with an average annual temperature of about 22°C and an annual rainfall of 800-1000 mm. The town is surrounded by the Kafue River tributary system, rich in wetland resources, suitable for agricultural development, but prone to flooding in the rainy season.
Economy and Transportation
The economy is based on small farms and livestock, with a vibrant market for agricultural products, and the T1 (Lusaka-Livingstone Trunk Road) passes through the town, making it a hub for the distribution of agricultural products in the Southern Province. In recent years solar power projects have been put in place to give new impetus to the region's development.
Culture and Ecology
The population is predominantly Tonga, with traditional ceremonies and handicrafts. The neighboring Kafue National Park extends partially into the area and is frequented by wildlife such as African buffalo and antelope, offering potential for eco-tourism.
