Zimbabwe Fights Ticks to Keep Cattle Healthy.
Zimbabwe's government wants to help cattle farmers. Ticks can make cows very sick. They carry diseases that harm and even kill many cows each year.
The government has a plan to stop this. It is called the Presidential Blitz Tick Grease Scheme. The goal is to give special grease to over a million farmers. Putting this grease on cows stops ticks from biting them.
So far, the government has distributed over 500,000 kilograms of grease. They want to provide 1.5 million kilograms in total.
The government is also helping in other ways. It is giving cows shots to prevent illnesses like foot-and-mouth disease and anthrax and vaccinating chickens against Newcastle disease.
