The government wants to help farmers by making it easier for them to prove they own their land. They opened a special office at Makombe in Harare where farmers can receive important papers called title deeds. These papers show the land belongs to them.

When farmers come to this new office, they need to bring their identity cards and other papers that show they are allowed to farm the land. They must pay ten dollars to start the work. A person at the office will help them fill out some forms. Another worker will check if the farm has been properly measured.

The office promises to give farmers their title deeds very quickly if they can pay for everything right away. If farmers need more time to pay, they can take up to three months. The government is also talking to banks about helping farmers who might need to borrow money.

This plan will help many farmers who received land during Zimbabwe's big land-sharing program. The government thinks about 2,500 farmers will have their title deeds by March next year. President Mnangagwa started this new system at the end of last year because he wanted to ensure land went to the right people and make it easier for families to pass their farms down to their children.
