Zimbabwe’s government are offering incentives to exiled farmers so they return home, as a means of restarting the country’s agriculture industry.
Government officials are now admitting the farm invasions that began in 2000 were a mistake, and are offering 99 year leases to commercial farmers on the condition they return to Zimbabwean soil.
Basil Nyabadza from Zimbabwe's Agricultural and Rural and Development Authority says the previous actions of the government against farmers left a lot of bad feeling and hopefully the new program would encourage displaced farmers to return to Zimbabwe.
