Zimbabwe produced food on the farms, but they have been forcefully taken and given to "war veterans". Now they produce very little food.
BTW farm claiming is still happening. Apparently you just need to hammer a peg in the land and then the farmer needs to go to court to defend his farm. Needless to say it costs diesel and time. Also while the owner spend the time in court, his wife and children are alone on the farm with militant claimers.
Pity, they have a wonderful climate for farming, but the people who know how to produce food, was/is chased off the land.
