GMAZ Chairperson Tafadzwa Musarara told NewZimbabwe.com that maize imports from Brazil will augment local produce and imports from South Africa. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- The delivery of the maize is expected to start in July if the discussions are fruitful. Said Musarara: > This maize will complement our current supplies from local farmers and ongoing imports from South Africa. > We are aiming to procure and secure a circa 400,000 metric tonnes supply arrangement covering September 2024 to August 2025. > We are here to negotiate and conclude supplies to arrive in Zimbabwe starting at the end of July 2024. During the 2023/24 summer cropping season, Zimbabwe recorded its worst harvest in four decades, consequentially putting millions at risk of hunger. This has been attributed to El Nino, a weather event that often causes sporadic rainfall and scorching heat which has a debilitating impact on Zimbabwe’s largely rainfed agriculture. Zimbabwe was the third country in Africa to declare this year’s drought a national disaster, following Malawi and Zambia.
