MASUNGA: A delegation of four millers from Zimbabwe provinces were recently in the country on a two-day visit to benchmark the milling process of small grains from North East District (NED) millers.

The delegation, which was made up of millers from Bulawayo, Matebeleland North, Matebeleland South and Harare said that they were sent by the Ministry of Small Medium Enterprises Development, to learn and see how locals mill sorghum and millet.

The team toured government sponsored milling factories within the district before they returned to Zimbabwe. Millers expressed interest in partnering with locals to feed the two countries. During a media brief, team leader Allen Ndebele of Amini millers based in Matebeleland North said that in Zimbabwe, they only mill maize and have interest in milling sorghum and millet and the importance of their visit was to learn that from local millers.
