Current prices for fertiliser, seed, feed and equipment, what's worth planting, and where farmers can actually sell at a profit.
A big 2026 harvest is running into a dry 2027 forecast, and grain prices are set to rise. Here's what the market signals mean for what you plant, and a plan for communal farmers, small commercial growers, irrigators and livestock keepers.
Global fertiliser prices are climbing toward a 30%+ jump in 2026, and Zimbabwe's import bill and coal-to-fertiliser gamble mean local farmers won't be shielded from it.
The equipment deficit and unbankable land titles that separate small-scale from commercial farming in Zimbabwe are being addressed, but not fast enough to change this season's economics.
