Government has shifted its winter wheat strategy from expanding hectarage to maximising yields after farmers exceeded the 125 000ha planting target. During crop assessments at Ceres Farm in Shamva, Permanent Secretary Prof. Dr. Obert Jiri said focus is now on productivity through sound agronomy, reliable irrigation, fertiliser efficiency and pest control, with Zimbabwe targeting 662 500MT of wheat to strengthen food security and self-sufficiency. @obertjiri

NDS2: 🇿🇼 Wanezi Dam Rehabilitation Transforms Rural Livelihoods in Insiza
The rehabilitation of Wanezi Dam in Insiza District, Matabeleland South Province, is transforming rural livelihoods by expanding access to irrigation, clean water and fisheries, while reinforcing the Second Republic's development philosophy that "a dam is an economic concept."
The revitalised dam is unlocking new economic opportunities for surrounding communities by supporting year-round agricultural production, improving household water security and creating sustainable income-generating activities through fisheries.
The project is expected to strengthen food security by enabling irrigation farming, reducing reliance on rain-fed agriculture and boosting productivity in a region prone to recurrent droughts. Communities are also benefiting from improved access to safe water for domestic use and livestock, enhancing public health and agricultural resilience.
In addition, the rehabilitation has opened opportunities for fish farming, creating new sources of nutrition, employment and income for local households while stimulating broader rural economic development.
The Wanezi Dam project forms part of the Government's wider strategy to maximise the economic value of water infrastructure under the Rural Development 8.0 model. Guided by President Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa's vision that "a dam is an economic concept," the initiative demonstrates how strategic investment in water infrastructure can drive agricultural transformation, rural industrialisation and inclusive economic growth.
As Zimbabwe continues to rehabilitate and construct dams nationwide, projects such as Wanezi are helping build climate resilience, improve livelihoods and advance the country's Vision 2030 aspirations of achieving an empowered upper middle-income economy.
We applaud Government’s proactive “We applaud Government’s proactive approach in preparing for the anticipated 2026/2027 El Niño season. As Ocean Rock Borehole Drilling and Solar Systems, we stand ready to partner Government, communities, farmers, and development partners in strengthening water security through borehole drilling, rehabilitation, solar-powered water systems, and irrigation support across Zimbabwe. Together, we can build resilient communities and safeguard livelihoods. #WaterSecurity #ClimateResilience #Zimbabwe

Bikita Voices Shape National Development Agenda:
In Bikita, the call for inclusive national planning rang clear as community leaders, residents' associations, churches and Government representatives gathered at Pambudzi Lodge for the National Budget Education and Consultation Programme. The dialogue, hailed as a vital bridge between Treasury and grassroots voices, reinforced the urgency of aligning national priorities with local realities.
Delegates called for transformative investments, including a district hospital to end referrals to Ndanga District, a Government Complex to streamline service delivery and the upgrading of roads such as the Nandi–Matsvange Road to improve connectivity. Youth-focused vocational training centres were championed as a means of combating drug abuse, while mini-hydropower projects at local dams were proposed as sustainable energy solutions.
Industrial growth also took centre stage, with calls to harness Bikita's mineral wealth for lithium battery manufacturing and gold processing. Irrigation schemes in Gowe and Bengura were highlighted as lifelines for strengthening agricultural resilience in the face of climate change.
The community's appeal extended beyond local needs, urging Treasury to increase the national allocation for research and development, recognising that innovation is a key driver of economic transformation.
In Bikita, the message was unmistakable: development thrives when every voice is heard and when local aspirations are woven into the fabric of national progress.
