  • Can Zimbabwe sustain current cotton production levels?
  • Unlike in Tanzania, where there is still plenty of room for cotton production expansion, even under a fairly extensive production model, it is unlikely that the communal areas of Zimbabwe could sustain current cotton production levels under a less intensive mode of production.
  • Are soil fertility constraints affecting cotton production in Zimbabwe?
  • While the insights gained from focus group discussions are at best only indicative, the anecdotal evidence presented here does not suggest that soil fertility constraints are about to undermine the profitability of cotton production in Zimbabwe¡¯s main smallholder cotton production zones.
  • Who produces cotton seed in Zimbabwe?
  • The Quton Seed Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cottco, is the sole producer and supplier of cotton seed in Zimbabwe. While in theory other companies could set themselves up in competition, none have attempted to do so30.
  • Does Zimbabwe use fertilizer for cotton production?
  • Since much land in the communal areas of Zimbabwe is poor (sandy), both state and cotton company extension activities have actively promoted the use of fertilizer for cotton production, as well as chemical use for crop protection.
