Tobacco farming is profitable business
11 hrs ago | Views
Despite the late rains, the flue-cured tobacco crop in Ward 3, Chiweshe, Mash. Central is thriving. Its no use 'crying' for jobs when we have the land, farming is profitable business.
Go into farming and be your own masters. No more fears of retrenchments or being laid-off, even with only half a hectare under tobacco, with proper planning one can smile all the way to and from the bank. Most youths in Chiweshe are successful tobacco farmers with some now proudly riding motorbikes and others zooming in their cars.
In the photos are Edson Mavhunga and his mother assisting with suckercide application in his lush green tobacco plot in Chirimugaha Village, Chiweshe, Mash. Central.
