Zimbabwe was a massive food exporter, but then the president stepped in to expropriate the White owned farms, handing them over to his friends and supporters.
The new owners has little to no experience in farming.
The new President has actually reversed the policies of Mugabe. He issued 99 year leases to the remaining white farmers last year and said evicted white farmers could apply for new leases along with partner with black farmers.
So maybe they’ll get it turned around over there

The institutions in Zimbabwe aren’t strong enough to make that promise anything more than words on paper, unfortunately.
They don’t have the culture of law and order. It’s all very zero sum.

Yeah if I’m a white farmer I’m filing this under “not a fricking chance”. Seen the ending to that movie and it sucked, frick the sequel.
