The Government is well prepared for the forthcoming 2024/2025 summer cropping season in which normal to above normal rains are expected, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, Water, and Rural Development, Professor Obert Jiri has said.

In an interview at State House where Rural Development Authority (ARDA) chief executive, Mr Tinotenda Mhiko had gone to appraise President Mnangagwa on his recent award this morning, Prof Jiri said the Government is looking forward to a successful season.

“We are prepared for the normal to above normal rains in this coming season.

“Certainly the ministry is trying its best. We always use our stretch targets, we stretch ourselves to the limit to ensure that we perform, so we do not doubt that given another chance, we will still be the number one ministry,” he said.
