No More Bread

It’s a tragedy what Mugabe has done to Zimbabwe.

Reports from Zimbabwe say bakeries have run out of flour and there will be no bread in the foreseeable future.

The Agriculture Ministry has confirmed that this year’s wheat harvest yield of 145,000 tonnes is only one third of the country’s requirements.

Agriculture Minister Rugare Gumbo is quoted as blaming the shortages on the failings of what he called the “new farmers” created by the land reforms.

Last week, the government announced it would import 100,000 tonnes of wheat.

But even that would still leave Zimbabwe short of its 400,000 tonne target for this year.
