Mnangagwa Calls for Increased Preparations for 2025 Winter Wheat Season

President Emmerson Mnangagwa is urging stakeholders in the agriculture sector to step up preparations for the upcoming 2025 winter wheat season.

Speaking at the 382nd ordinary session of the Politburo, Mnangagwa emphasized the importance of intensifying preparations to maintain Zimbabwe’s self-sufficiency in wheat production.

“I call upon stakeholders in the agriculture sector to ramp up preparations for the upcoming 2025 winter wheat season”

This call to action is particularly significant, given the country’s recent achievements in agriculture.

Zimbabwe is projected to have a record wheat harvest of 600,000 tonnes from the 2024 winter crop, showcasing the resilience of the country’s farming sector.

The President’s emphasis on agricultural modernization and innovative practices is critical, especially in the face of climate challenges.

By working together, stakeholders can ensure a successful winter wheat season, contributing to Zimbabwe’s food security and economic growth.
