The Water Resources Management Authority (WARMA) has continued to engage farmers and key stakeholders at the ongoing 2026 AgriTech Expo in Chisamba, using the platform to highlight critical water management issues affecting the agricultural sector.
WARMA Acting Director General, Mrs. Misozi Ngulube Lumpa, today interacted with farmers and exhibitors, providing guidance on sustainable water use and regulatory requirements.
The Authority also participated in the official opening of the Expo, where the Republican President, Mr. Hakainde Hichilema, represented by the Minister of Agriculture, Hon. Reuben Mtolo, called for increased agricultural production, greater adoption of technology, and strengthened resilience against climate change.
As part of its outreach, WARMA has also leveraged media platforms to raise public awareness of water permits, borehole drilling, and responsible water use.
Members of the public are encouraged to visit the WARMA stand in the ZNFU main arena for information and engagement on water resources management.
