Digital assets are moving from experimentation to real-world use. We see collaboration across the ecosystem as key to connecting onchain innovation with trusted global payments infrastructure.
Initiatives like the @Mastercard Crypto Partner Program help bring builders, networks, and financial institutions closer together.

Digital assets are entering a new phase. What once ran in parallel to existing financial systems is increasingly being applied to solve practical, real-world needs — often behind the scenes – from cross-border remittances to B2B money transfers. This creates new opportunities to add value in how money moves globally. Today, we introduced the Mastercard Crypto Partner Program — a global initiative that brings together more than 85 crypto-native companies, payments providers, and financial institutions. Together, we're creating a forum for meaningful dialogue and collaboration as this space continues to mature.

Delta Corporation says it buys about US$20 million worth of barley and US$15 million on maize from local farmers each year.
That covers all of Delta’s barley malt needs and around half of its maize demand. Barley is the main ingredient in lagers, while maize is added to soften the taste.
The company works with contracted maize and barley farmers across 6,000–8,000 hectares each year. Farmers receive seed, fertiliser, chemicals and technical support, which they pay for when they deliver their crops.
For traditional beer, Delta also buys up to US$5 million worth of sorghum annually from about 9,000 growers.

@JosephKamuzhan1 @nickmangwana @MoLAFWRD_Zim @DVSZim @ShumbaCoopers @MaminiminiObert @obertjiri @SvosveII Also allows us to catch the youngsters early & sensitize them on best Agric practices. Livestock remains the most stable an accessible investment option for many, 70 % of our draught power is animal driven. Let’s protect and grow the sector !

@DevFinEconomist @nickmangwana @MoLAFWRD_Zim @DVSZim @ShumbaCoopers @MaminiminiObert @obertjiri @SvosveII This the way to reach stakeholders and spread the message that we are in a serious crisis. The battle can only be won by all of us working together and putting the livestock owners at the centre of it all.

No frills accounts will allow us to financially include the farmers in financial markets & facilitate their participation on @ZMXExchange. Current products are prohibitive @Nedbank @NMBBankZim @StanbicBankZW @tncybertechbank @obertjiri @mthimz

But for this innovation to fully empower the smallholder farmer it needs support to raise awareness to the farmers and also support from financial institutions with low cost accounts for the smallholders who get money once or twice a year. @ReserveBankZIM @CBZHoldings

Welldone to @ZMXExchange @wamamboDenney for developing the commodity exchange platform that allows price discovery, closes the information asymmetry gap between buyers & sellers, reduce farmer post harvest losses & facilitate credit access especially for smallholder farmers.

I went behind the curtain to try explain why I love a 6% yield product in a market with 13% USD inflation.
The market has doubled a Tigere and Eagle REIT share.
