Mrs Hayumbu has a plan to help farmers plagued by elephants
A tarmac road is all that separates Namukulo Munalula Hayumbu from the Kafue National Park.
Her 50-hectare farm is located in the buffer zone or Game Management Area (GMA) just across from the park. She is one of the 33,000 people who now live in the GMA.
Conflicts with endangered species such as elephants and lions are part of the way of life. People are angry about the constant feeling that animals matter more to the government than the people who are impacted by them.
She understands why the "courageous ones go across the road at night to hammer one or two for the pot," but poaching is not the solution she says.
Mrs Hayumbu has a detailed plan.
"The government is not doing much, we need fencing of the park and also to allow farmers to fence their fields," she says.
"We need an insurance scheme and we in the GMA should contribute to this so in case of loss of life or loss of crop we should be compensated."
But with a rapidly growing population and a government with many other priorities, ending the human-wildlife conflicts in Kafue may take a while.
