Zimbabwe expects nearly a million tonnes in surplus grain reserves

Zimbabwe is expected to build strategic grain reserves of between 550,945 and 964,945 tonnes following a strong harvest.

Officials credit favourable rains and improved input support for the projected surplus.

Economists say robust reserves could cushion households against future shocks and stabilise staple prices.
