In his address at the Africa regional conference in Victoria Falls on Wednesday, Air Force of Zimbabwe Commander Air Marshal Elson Moyo said Command Agriculture will continue for the next 10 years.
PKF Chartered Accountants, an international accounting and audit firm with offices in Zimbabwe, hosted the rotational conference on behalf of Zimbabwe. Air Marshal Moyo said he foresees Agribank coming in to fund Command Agriculture as Government withdraws. Said Air Marshal Moyo:
The challenges in access to finance resulted in low productivity on farms and Command Agriculture came in to avail resources. We foresee Agribank coming back to fund as Government gradually moves out. Imports are too high and we have to work towards self-sustainability and we foresee Command Agriculture going on for 10 years to come
