Water provision
Permanent water should preferably not be provided in areas that are seasonally dry (winter and spring).
Control of indigenous encroacher species
Dense thickets of mopane, sickle bush, umbrella thorn and three-hook thorn occur especially on old
cultivated fields. Considering the small areas where these species have encroached compared to the total
size of Maremani, it is not necessary to control indigenous plants.
Alien (exotic) vegetation
Alien plants should be eradicated.
The following categories have been allocated to declared weeds and invader plants (Amendment to the
regulations of the Conservation of Agricultural Resources Act No. 43 of 1983 - see Regulation 15).
