Zimbabwe has been hit by the acute wheat shortage and the shortage of foreign currency for the bread producers to import wheat from outside the country.

Today the Grain Millers Association of Zimbabwe (GMAZ) announced that it has appointed a National Wheat Contract Farming Committee (NWCFC), to lead the winter wheat contract farming for the next three years.

"The national wheat contract farming committee will be chaired by GMAZ chairman Tafadzwa Musarara and deputised by Graeme Murdoch of Paperhole Investments (PHI) and will be charged with the responsibility to mobilise inputs and machinery for the production of at least 150 000 metric tonnes of wheat valued circa $80 million," said GMAZ.
