Project narrative

On December 7, 2016, the Chinese Government held an official handover ceremony for a donation of 10,000 tons of urea fertilizer to the Government of Zimbabwe. The estimated monetary value of the donation is $2,177,500. The fertilizer was reportedly designed to benefit farmers who take part in a government maize production scheme targeting the production of 2 million tonnes of maize.

Staff comments

1. The Chinese project title is 万吨援津化肥完. 2. To estimate the monetary value of this donation ($2,177,500), AidData takes the international price of a ton of urea fertilizer in December 2016 ($217.75) and multiplies it by 10,000 tons.
