THE Government has accelerated the implementation of sustainable development projects in the agricultural sector while also promoting innovation at tertiary institutions.
The Second Republic is forging ahead with the implementation of national projects that are key towards the transformation of people’s lives across the country.
In a Post Cabinet media briefing in Harare this Tuesday, Minister of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Senator Monica Mutsvangwa said a massive rollout of centre pivots covering 100 hectares and other dam construction projects is underway in various provinces.
“The electrification and installation of centre pivots covering 100 hectares of the 150 hectares Madhodha irrigation scheme in Mashonaland West province has been completed, and the development of 69 hectares of irrigation at Chitemene Irrigation Scheme in Manicaland province was completed.
