Cape Town – Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe says he is "disappointed" by black farmers who are underutilising the land given to them under the country's land reform programme, a report says.
According to The Herald, Mugabe, who was speaking to thousands of people gathered at his rural Zvimba village, said he was disappointed that large farms given to black farmers were being used as nothing but "status symbols".
"It is out now that quite a good many of those who got farms on the A2 system are not running them.... [They say] 'I'm a farmer, I have a farm', but what are you producing? That's what we want to know..." Mugabe was quoted as saying.
