 As the old adage goes "whenever elephants fight, it's the grass that suffers", the same happened to Chitomborwizi farmers.Most farmers were reduced to mere paupers during this period of economic meltdown when Zimbabwe had runaway inflation running into millions per year.Farmers' income was greatly eroded because of the nature of their income (once per season/year) this means most farmers would fail to plant crops the next season due to high input cost and run away inflation.
