The Government has urged wheat farmers to speed up harvesting their crop to avoid losses from rains expected in the first week of November, reported The Sunday Mail.

The Chief director (agricultural engineering, mechanisation, post-harvest agro-processing and soil conservation) in the Ministry of Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Rural Development Engineer Edwin Zimunga said:

We are urging all wheat farmers to expedite harvesting of their winter wheat crops by all means available.

We have created combine harvesters clusters countrywide, where farmers can access efficient service.

Farmers need to get in touch with local leadership to organise and schedule harvesting and grain drying services immediately to save the winter wheat.
