NEW: Banks, millers support wheat production

The agricultural sector requires efficient financial services to attain the 120 000 hectares of wheat targeted during this winter season, an official has said.

AFC group chief executive officer, Mr Francis Macheka, said this during the Wheat Based Food Security: Zimbabwe’s Best Foot Forward Conference organised by Zimpapers in partnership with the Ministry of Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Rural Development in Harare this morning.

Mr Macheka said AFC was promoting development finance services to transform Zimbabwe’s agriculture sector.

He said their mandate was to support agriculture in the country, while leaving no one and no place behind.

“We want to make sure that everyone is involved in the development of the country,” Mr Macheka said.

He said they were supporting the production of winter wheat this season across the country.
