This podcast with Forget Shareka really got thinking about how as a nation we need to be more involved in all parts of the supply chain in agribusiness. Agriculture is associated negative stereotypes. But you know something?
I’ve observed that most developed countries have a solid agricultural system. They absolutely do not take it for granted. Now add climate change to that which will not spare our favorable weather So. We Zimbabweans should be making all the hay we can while the sun is shining.
I know there’s a lot of improvement in the agribusiness and I’m inspired by seeing some farmers here on Twitter doing the work. But I just wanna encourage anyone who has the interest to be involved in the agribusiness supply chain. It’s lame that some thinks it’s lame.
Remember, the rule is often you wanna have more exports than imports as a country. And you probably know how it’s been going these past years. We can change that. We can.
Anyway. Rate us 5 stars on Apple Podcasts and follow us on your favorite podcast platforms
