Banks in Zimbabwe want to help farmers grow more food. They plan to give farmers money to buy what they need for their farms, which will make everyone feel good about growing lots of food this year.

Professor Obert Jiri, who helps run farming in Zimbabwe, said the banks will give farmers special money. Through special banks that help farmers, they will give them ZiG852,970 million and US$163,120 million.

The people in charge want to help farmers water their crops better. They plan to water 120,000 big pieces of land this summer. Last year, they only watered 75,000 pieces. Many farmers are growing corn and other foods using this water.

Farmers need machines to help them work on their farms. The leaders bought many tractors and other big machines. These machines have already helped farmers work on more than 1,156,000 pieces of land. The farmers learned how to use these new machines to grow better food.

The leaders make sure farmers have special plant food called fertilizer. Right now, they have 174,732 big bags of fertilizer ready. Farmers need 780,000 bags every growing season, and the leaders work hard to find all of them.

People who know about keeping plants healthy want to teach farmers the best ways to protect their crops. They show farmers how to stop small bugs from eating their plants.

Electricity helps farmers grow food. The people who provide electricity work with farming teachers. They want to ensure that all farmers have the power they need to grow food in summer and winter.
