Maize variety options for Africa: Zimbabwe
Maize is the most important crop for Zimbabwe. Maize production in this country experiences the most frequent and severe fluctuations in southern Africa. Area, yield and production declined by 1.5%, 1.8%, and 3.3%, respectively, each year between 2000 and 2013. Between 2000 and 2011 Zimbabwe imported 354,000 tons of maize, worth US$ 128 million annually. Frequent drought is the main cause of yield loss in this country.
