THE government says it will open up more space to private capital as it bids to build on the momentum from the 2020/21 agriculture season and register another surplus in the coming summer cropping period.
This comes after Zimbabwe produced more than 3 million tonnes of cereals during the 2020/21 season, giving a surplus of 828 000 tonnes.
Information minister Monica Mutsvangwa told the media after this week’s Cabinet meeting that the government’s strategic objective for the 2021/22 season is to sustainably increase crop production and productivity to meet and surpass national requirements for both human consumption and industrial use.
