HARARE – Following the recent heavy rains that have been pounding Bulawayo, people have gone out in full force to till the land, and should the rains continue, this could have a huge impact on food security.
Almost every available space in Bulawayo has been cultivated as people make good use of the available moisture on the ground to produce their own food under the urban agriculture program that has yielded good results in years of good rains.
ZBC News observed that people were busy in the fields weeding following good germination of the crop and are optimistic of a good yield this year given the soaking rains that have fallen since the onset of the rainy season.
