Anne Wangalachi conveys heartfelt thanks to the CIMMYT-Zimbabwe team for sharing their time, experience, and expertise with her during her three-day visit this week. Wangalachi, a science writer and editor, was on a mission to orient herself about Zimbabwe operations in the region.

She said the team shows enthusiasm, dedication, competence and professionalism for both simple and complex aspects of their work. From variety development to seed shipment; leaf hopper multiplication; conservation agriculture and soil fertility management, to coordinating operations—all components seem to run like clockwork. “One feels right at home, regardless of where one is based within CIMMYT,” says Wangalachi.

A hearty Asanteni sana (thank you very much) goes to you all at CIMMYT-Zimbabwe!
