Many trees have been lost to forest fires started by the settlers who have reportedly invaded at least 20 000 hectares. The future of the industry is at risk as the bulk of Zimbabwe’s timber comes from the eastern highlands.

WhatsApp: 0️⃣7️⃣8️⃣3️⃣ 4️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ 7️⃣9️⃣3️⃣ ---------- > Most of the timber plantations (in Manicaland) are occupied (by illegal settlers) > It is no exaggeration that unless the situation is addressed, the future of the timber industry in Manicaland is bleak Some of the affected companies include Allied Timbers Zimbabwe, Border Timbers, and Wattle Company. Duwa warned that the issue needs to be dealt with quickly as the country is facing a huge shortage of foreign currency, and imports can go a long way in alleviating that, saying: > The issue of illegal settlers is taking too long to address. The time when the nation will solely rely on timber imports is fast approaching, let us all join our hands to prevent this from happening, More: Thomson Reuters Foundation _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
