*Speculation that command agriculture harvest is exaggerated as govt imports maize despite import ban* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?kr Weekly publication, the Financial Gazette, has revealed that government is still importing maize through the port of Beira in Mozambique despite the fact that the government itself banned maize imports 5 months ago. The GMB depot in Murehwa received a consignment of maize from between 50 – 70 thirty-tonne trucks last week. This has led to speculation that the harvest expected from the Command Agriculture programme may not be as much as anticipated and that the imports are meant to cover up for the shortfall. However, Deputy Minister of Agriculture Davison Marapira dismissed the claims saying: ---------- *HOT DEALS:* *itel A70 - (128GB, 3GB RAM) $89,* *itel A70 - (256GB, 4GB RAM) $99* *itel P40 (128GB, 4GB), (6000mAh) $99* *itel P40 (64GB, 4G), (6000mAh) $93* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

How then can we cover up for a shortfall which we don’t know of as yet? We are not filling any gap, get it from me. Millers, on the other hand, said that it takes two months for grain imports from Mexico to land in Zimbabwe.
