Aquaculture Zimbabwe opens offices in Masvingo Province

The Masvingo project has seen Aquaculture Zimbabwe setting up fort in the city in order to facilitate communication and access to beneficiaries in Chivi and Masvingo rural districts. To steer operations, a dedicated team which is constituted of experienced cadres will provide the technical assistance required. These are Mr. P. Nyungu, Mr. V. Zvarevashe, Mr. J.Machingura, Mr. A. Mutatavikwa, Mr. M. Nyabereka and Miss M. Nyakuengama and Miss T. Chikupe. The senior project officers are Mr. G. Tongowona and Mr. M. Dingwa. The thrust of the organization is to reduce chronic poverty and improve people's livelihoods by empowering them through fish farming.

People in the city have shown their appreciation of the new project and their wish is to realize the project extending to all the districts of the province which have very low rainfall and on the same low crop yields. The project promises to be a success because people even those who are not the beneficiaries have welcomed it and are helping the beneficiaries in the construction of ponds. Fish farming took the hearts of many people even those in the town; many of the perplexed people have been flocking the office desiring to know how they can become farmers as well as their chances of making it into the project. If it happens that many people undertake this project, poverty will be reduced and crime levels lowering for they will be busy taking good care of their fish for six to nine months which is the harvest time.
