Farming diminishing
Zimbabwe's economy is basically agricultural. The formerly strong
commercial farming sector was thrown into disarray with the
expropriation of white-owned farms that began in 2000, and the
replacement of large efficient farms with smaller ones worked by
inexperienced farmers. Formerly an exporter of foodstuffs, Zimbabwe now
must import grains, but the small farmers have reversed some of the
losses that occurred in the tobacco crop. Corn is the chief food source,
and cotton and tobacco the principal cash crops. Other products include
wheat, coffee, sugarcane, and peanuts. There are also tea plantations
in the country; dairying is important in the highveld. Sheep, goats and
pigs are raised.
however this does not mean the country is economically stable. we are facing a lot of problems especially this year the, they is no rain at all, in Shona they call it mvura yarambira mudenga. plants are wilting if ou walk around you will feel pity. most of us we do not have the money to by food, so are we going to die of h8nger as the year is promising. Come on Zimbabweans lets try to mend the economy of the country, lets stop our corruption.
