Ten years ago, soyabeans were promoted with smallholder farmers in Zimbabwe to help offset problems of soil fertility, introduce diversity into cropping systems dominated by maize production, and increase incomes. A mix of soyabeans can now be seen in most smallholder farming areas in suitable agroecologies throughout the country. This success is due to a solid multi-institutional effort that included establishment of local input facilities, as well as market and transport opportunities.
十年前津巴布韦开始鼓励小农户种植大豆,以增进土壤肥力,改变玉米产区生物多样性单一的特点,达到增加收入的目的。如今在津巴布韦全国各地可以看到小农户们都在用适宜的生态方法种植大豆,这一成功是与当地建立了农业服务机构、大豆符合市场的需求及交通便利等分不开的。
