Zimbabwe’s fertiliser companies have been told to boost their production to stop increasing imports. According to the African Development Bank, Zimbabwe’s three fertiliser companies have the capacity to produce enough fertiliser for domestic use and for export but during the first half of this year Zimbabwe spent more on fertiliser imports than on fuel. At one time the fertiliser companies had the capacity to produce 500 000 tonnes. Local demand is estimated at 300 000 tonnes.
