Climate smart agriculture is set to be scaled up through the introduction of the Presidential Rural Horticulture Scheme and Presidential Poultry Production to promote food self-sufficiency, supply export markets and improve earnings for smallholder farmers.
Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Rural Resettlement Minister, Dr Anxious Masuka, speaking on climate smart agriculture and agricultural research at the Zimbabwe National Defence University yesterday, said the Presidential Rural Horticulture Scheme will see 1,8 million households getting free 10 fruit trees each, and is the biggest climate smart agriculture intervention since 1980.https://www.herald.co.zw/horticulture-poultry-scheme-planned/
