The Zimbabwe Prisons and Correctional Services (ZPCS) says it is targeting to reach self-sustenance in food production through maximum utilisation of its farms.

This came out during a field day held at Ridigita prison farm yesterday, where Minister of Provincial Affairs and Devolution for Mashonaland East, Hon Apollonia Munzverengwi was the guest of honour.

Minister Munzverengwi said agriculture is important to humanity as it provides food and serves as the foundation of all other industries.

Ridigita farm planted 100ha of commercial maize, 10ha of cowpeas and 20ha of sunflower.
