Seed Houses Urged to Produce More Small Grains

Seed houses should produce more small grain seed varieties to supply communities in drought-prone regions four and five so as to assist in improving food production.

Speaking during a small grains field day held in Umzingwane district on Tuesday, Caritas Zimbabwe development co-ordinator for the Archdiocese of Bulawayo, Mr Welcome Sibanda, said the reality of climate change calls for innovative approaches to addressing food security.

He said growing small grains has been proven to be an effective model in areas that receive low rainfall.
