Chief director in the Department of Agricultural Engineering, Mechanization and Soil Conservation, Engineer Edwin Zimunga said the machinery is meant to cushion farmers without collateral but with potential by creating a conducive environment that maximize their agriculture yields. He added that there has been an overwhelming uptake of the harvesting machinery as a result of their flexible payment terms.
