            Soils need Nutrients and we are the Solution


            - Munyaradzi Ussore (Representative of Yara)





            The representative of the fertilizer distribution company,
            Yara, Munyaradzi Ussore, said that in order to guarantee
            agricultural productivity it is necessary to promote soil
            nutrition. According to him, climate change has posed
            some challenges. Soil researchers have found that
            fertilizers are the perfect solution when matched with
            hybrid seeds.

            “We work with agrodealers, presenting evidence about   that sustainable agriculture is only possible when we have
            the power of fertilizers. At this moment, we can guarantee   fertilizers in the value chain,” he explained.
