Zimbabwe's government is handing out free farming supplies across Matabeleland South Province, and people are hyped because they can actually plant on time for once. Farmers at Guyu Business Centre in Gwanda District got maize seeds, fertilizer, and chemicals through the Presidential Inputs Scheme that covers over three million rural families. Portia Ncube from Sengezane Village said the early delivery is a game-changer compared to past years when stuff showed up late.

The country wants to plant 1.8 million hectares of maize this season, and weather forecasters are predicting decent rainfall for the south after last year's El Niño drought wrecked everything. Village head Dumisani Moyo said locals are using conservation farming methods to lock down food security. Officials are prioritizing farmers who actually delivered grain last season, and they're matching crop types to different climate zones, with sorghum and millet going to drier areas.
