A senior Grain Millers Association of Zimbabwe (GMAZ) official, Ringson Chitsiko, has revealed that the country is left with just seven months supply of grain.
Addressing stakeholders at a GMAZ extraordinary meeting on drought assessment Friday, Chitsiko said:
It is not a secret that we probably have up to seven months supply of grain including the strategic grain reserve but you know that as a country we always want to be in a surplus position so that with or without a favorable season.
FeedbackOur situation with regards to the grain situation must always be positive.
