‘We’re on the cusp of something big’

There is currently an ongoing drive to increase garlic production, whose demand in international markets continues to rise. Spain, for example, earned more than US$478 million from exports of the high-value commodity in 2020. The Government believes there is scope for crops like garlic and ginger to play a leading role in rural development, which is key to achieving Vision 2030. Our Business Reporter Ishemunyoro Chingwere was in Gutu for the launch of the export programme being spearheaded and financed by Gutu Central Member of Parliament Winston Chitando, who is also the Minister of Mines and Mining Development. He had an opportunity to talk to Garlic, Ginger and Turmeric Growers Association of Zimbabwe field advisor Mr Douglas Msipa on issues pertaining to garlic production. Mr Msipa is an established commercial garlic farmer and is expecting a yield of 100 tonnes this year.

Park not in the past

Open your eyes and your mind to new pictures, fresh ideas and new action. Do not be satisfied with a life of listless and unimaginative repetition of the all too familiar. Be a daring thinker, bold visionary and strategic actor. Do not just gobble poisoned morbid pictures of hell, horror, and Armageddon. Dream and start working differently to create a new and exciting future.
