President Michael Sata says his government is determined to steer the agricultural sector in accordance with the Patriotic Front manifesto.
The president has said this in a statement released by State house Presidential Assistant for Press and Public relations, George Chellah.
Mr Sata has since disclosed 2.1 trillion kwacha worth of maize purchases and 1.5 billion kwacha worth of rice purchases in the current crop marketing season.
The total maize bought, though the Food reserve Agency, is over 1.6 million metric as well as over 993 metric tonnes of rice.
Mr Sata has also disclosed that government has paid out at least 1.8 trillion kwacha for the purchases of both crops.
And the President has further noted that comprehensive measures to combat animal diseases, especially in Southern province are underway.

Way to go HEMCS coz it ws too much gold tok @ da xpens of national dvelopment,we nid jobs nt lyonsefye ni gold ths gold tht…
Ba tunyeko i don’t see any re-commitments in your article, perhaps rephrase your ka title..
We are very happy to hear that Mr President.
In the MMD govt this data used to be made by the Minister of Agric. One man show in the Sangwapo Govt!
You need to see me for editorial tutorials.
Exhaust blown diffuser; just continue diffusing blown exhausts. Nothing in this world will ever look positive for you. You are the chaps who condemns the president for the daytime temperatures! It’s good your name is hidden, u’re an embarrassment.
There is nothing new here. Dr Eustakio kanzonga and the FRA board in Mmd govern. bought this maize. Tell us something new and wat u wont do in 9odays I mean the u-turns.
🙂
Mwiche whats wrong with you?? do you see any similarities in the heading and story in this article?? I don’t see any re-commitments. Previous Governments have always been doing that.
You should think carefully before you let you ignorance spill out of that head..
Who blames sata for the weather?? i guess only lunatics..
Am trying to educate your tunyeko you also bring up your issues
O.K, on this platform there is too much fighting, insulting, arguing… Sometimes I just grab some pop corn & observe these fights. BUT it’s good that everyone is allowed to express themselves freely. We are all different & this brings balance to society…
The fights pali tumfweko are just so good.. At the end of the day,we see who has brains ne chipuba between iwe naiwe..
SATA is here for a better Zambia.
Fellow Zambians I know power is sweet now we must be constructive in our open, kalijo type of attacks on the ruling party and its president Sata.Ala ubuteko twali poka,by the way Sata is a serious man this other man was just always in the air was president manone,Lwendo,Chintelelwe name it.Lets talk about how best the abuse of office clause could be found somewhere in the constitution and prosecute these chaps.Umutwe we sabi nganaubola the rest bane you can’t with stand it’s stinking.Lets get to the bottom of this former government’s SANGWAPO,you chaps with your tuma jackets mu washa muli boom get down to work and bring people to book you only talk kwati mule wamya”Tandiwe is worth K8billion”so whats next.
Mwanamfumu u’re right, let those with vocabu… insult. Afterall it doesnt pay a penny! Good luck, no matter what you say negatively about MCS, he’s already there and working for you. A man enough go there and uproot him.
I am excited about the comprehensive measures to combat animal diseases especially in southern province. I am eager to see a vibrant and internationally competitive beef industry. And cattle raring in southern province is a hobby. People rarely fail at hobbies; so with government taking care of diseases, southern province will soon begin ticking.
@ba Mwiche,thank u.. SATA is the driver for now.
Sata has bearly been in office 2 mnths so i dont understand all this critisisim of whtever he is doing bt the truth is hes doing great
Am not kuklaxklan but found myself logged onto their blog profile…ba tumfweko how come our profiles are being exposed like this?????????????
@ ba mwiche, you are the pipo that we need to be hearing and sharing ideas on this platform rather than hearing insults from these disgruntled chaps who are bitter about anything that our Godly given president pronouces,anyway never mind about these empty tins who only see negatives in every positive developments,these are the same chaps who were used by the former government to massacre everyone who critised wrongs about them..Thats the way to go HEMCS continue on the same path you have the full support of me mwiche,mwanamfuma,maurice makala and many more…
Thats tha way to go. Love This Man With A Passion ! God Bless SATA & Zambia at Large !
Criticisin even wr its unnecessary iz jst CHILDISH! c’mon grow up!
En its so funny u cn even compare these efforts to the previous gvt..lyk seriously.du yo research not js outerin thngz on empty minds! sha!
DOES H.E. MCS HAVE AN AGRICULTURE MINISTER? WHAT’S THE MINISTER DOING? THIS IS WHAT I HAVE ALWAYS FEARED ABOUT A SATA GOVERNMENT – EVERYONE WILL BE ASKED TO SHUT UP SO THAT HE IS SEEN TO BE THE ONLY ONE WORKING, OR WHOSE WORD MATTERS!!
Imwe mwebana bamufyani calling tumfweko ati tunyeko behave your stupid selves. Tamwafundwa bakolwe imwe aini…and if u r not happy with sata hang yourselves.otherwise u r stuck him for a good 5 yrs. Im loving his reign to the max. Lolest…chikubabe
Wanu Ngwee, what a frustrated lot you and many other people are.
When mwanawasa was on telly discussing the floor-price of maize, you saw nothing wrong with that ( in your world – where was his minister?) Banda announced the trillion kwacha urban road redevelopment ( where was his minister?) When mwanawasa announced the setting aside of K 2billion youth fund, where was his minister?
You see Wanu Ngwee, we have come to accept that in that in our beloved country and society there are idoits amongst us. You are just one of them.
Wilbur Simuusa was on katunya kamusabata recently discussing PF mining policy.
Kennedy Sakeni was on radio recently discussing home affairs and PFs vision.
Given Lubinda is always on air.
Nkandu luo recenlty was on air discussing the environment and the pollution second-hand vehicle.
SO WHAT ONE-MAN SHOW MR IDIOT? WHOSE BEING TOLD TO SHUT UP.
Ba Chimbwi mwalilusa chapwa.Tamwaishibe ati ifintu filachinja.Some body who voted for Sata can not be saying that. All those talking shit did not exptect things to happen the way they have happenened.First indalama mwashitile ifimute ifitenge mwafumishe kwi?
Am very disappointed with those who are trying to oppose with what the president is doing.BA WISO BALELANDA IWE ULE NG’INTA BUSHE NINSHI ULI NAMANO?l know those who are opposing,fi MMD NA FI UPND keep yo mouths shut and let the president control the ship.And u ba tumfweko this news is 4 yestarday try 2 bring something new.
Its nice to have comedy on the blog like this!This is what makes it exciting.A bit of vile n seriousness mashed together.Ok PF ali fye good.Imagine ama banks reducing base rates ,first time in many years?Ya mwanawasa also dided it.These will affect money issues, ulefwaya nangu taulefwaya ok?
Tumfweko is cool.

Dreambreakers…..eva shootin down otha pipoz inovationz nd ideas..if u find it hard 2 read nd undastnd tumfweko news,y botha 2 log on ther site???…pls learn 2 appreciate wat thez guy r duin…double thumbz up tumfweko!!
Guys am thinking,Have you ever seen a president who doesnt move,I dont mean to be movious like RB but to move around country to inspire people like Obama does.Sata seems lost,the guy does’nt know what he is doing thats why he is seated there in state house.
Now that the firing is over his got nothing else to do….we are in reverse gear as a country.
shouldn’t this be coming from FRA who actually started collect maize before 20th Sept 2011!!
@Conservative. I dont think you understand being president of the US to being president in Zambia. You should appreciate MCS for Sitting at state house. He is sweeping the house and reserving money for you. The previous gvt was messed up if you were given to take over from RB I guess you will be out there on holiday enjoying your victory and running away fro the challenges at state house. Sata is a man to appreciate right now. He may not be perfect but he is by far better than RB and Sons. Have you ever been on a presidential tour? You will know how expensive it is to the nation for the president to always be out there. He will come there just wait
@nakabemba
mayo you are right… sata is the president wether you are HH or banda rupiah sata is the president finish
Ba conservative, you picked your words very carefully this is why I will not go faul on you. it will simply be below the belt.
Firstly do you follow the news or are you in some cocoon somewhere? Our beloved president made it abundantly crystal clear that he will not be making any trips either abroad or in Mfuwe or anywhere else for that matter before he puts things right administratively.He he has the full support of right thinking Zambia who were subjected to working holidays in Mfuwe every second week.
Secondly, we are having a budget presentation end of the week, who do you think Minister chikwanda is confering with. All these appointments going on do you think sata just goes Inky pinky ponky…Its carefull analysis of each individual character to determin who he can work with.This is bvery important because people have to perform. This is why we will never fully understand why X. Chungu and Emmanual crossed his mind.
Conservative, this man – after a demanding and exhausting campaign period was entitled to a few days holiday to rest. He refused to go because of work. GIVE HIM SOME CREDIT. or do we want the that lazy-fat ass-fly all over the place in 90 days slob.
HE HAS PAPER WORK TO DO……
ITS TOO LATE!NO HOPE FOR ZAMBIA…BOOOOOO TO KING COBRA!
ATLEAST SO FAR SO GOOD. WE ARE NOW ABLE TO SEE THE DIRECTION OF THE COUNTRY BUT REMEMBER TO KEEP TO YOUR PROMISES. PEACE
good agriculture policies by the previous govt resulted into bumber harvest, we are yet to see next years harvsest
we are gretful of yo effort so far but consult more of many issues to avoid mistakes. you are a good president. God bless you and the 1st Lady

Great goods from you, man. I have remember your stuff previous to and you are simply extremely wonderful. I really like what you have obtained here, certainly like what you’re saying and the way in which wherein you assert it. You make it enjoyable and you still care for to keep it sensible. I can’t wait to read much more from you. This is actually a terrific site.
