Mozambique: Land conflict threatens to derail agricultural project in Massingir, Gaza – RM

Africa-Press – Mozambique. In Gaza province, a land conflict in Mucatine, Massingir district, threatens to derail an agricultural production project worth US$45 million.

Some members of the Mucatine community say there was lack of transparency in the concession of an area of 2,000 hectares to the company Massingir Vale Farms, which intends to produce maize, beans and elephant grass.

Community representative Eusébio Valoi says that the concession of the land parcel left some residents without space to practice agriculture or graze cattle.

The administrator of the Massingir district, Esmeralda Muthemba, is aware of the situation and says there is a small group of people who want to make the development of the district unfeasible.
