Abstract
The manager of COMACO's Regional Trading Centre at Lundazi shows the wire snares and guns that farmers have voluntarily traded in, in order to receive training in conservation farming methods and to be able to participate in COMACO. Over 30,000 wire snares and 700 guns have been collected in this way, which helps to curb illegal hunting.
