  • Does soybean production have a bright future in Africa?
  • The author argues that soybean production has a bright future in Africa due to the emerging and increasing demand for soybean oil and feed for livestock by the middle class. However, Africa continues to rely on the investment of largely resource©poor smallholders for the majority of crop production.
  • Why is zimgold a major producer of cooking oil in Zimbabwe?
  • The limited quantities of oilseed production in Zimbabwe have resulted in the dependence on imports. Zimgold has grown rapidly and invested in multiple categories, becoming the largest producer and marketer of cooking oil in Zimbabwe.
  • What is the oil-to-edible-oil value chain in Zimbabwe?
  • Zimbabwe’s oilseed-to-edible-oils value chain is concentrated around three seeds: soya bean, cotton, and sunflower, which are mainly used for the production of cooking oil for household and industrial use. Given the limited quantities in local production of oilseeds, edible-oil producers make use of import markets to source oilseeds.
  • Why does zimgold import soya beans?
  • However, soya bean production lags behind demand, leading to the importation of soya beans/soya meal from Zambia, Malawi, and South Africa. Zimgold intends to source soya beans locally during the grain marketing season, capitalizing on the locally available soya beans and sunflower seeds.
