The Economist.
Hello and welcome to The Intelligence from The Economist.
I'm Jason Palmer.
Today on the show, a visit to Zimbabwe, where white farmers are returning to the land,
and the legalese surrounding an AI-driven human extinction.
From the barn now, I come and put it here.
Small goats.
These goats are going to be intoxicated on tobacco.
Earlier this year, I visited Mvurwi, which is a town about 100 km north of Zimbabwe's capital, Harare.
John McDermott is our chief Africa correspondent.
I met lots of farmers there, including a man named Lovemore Chiwa.
...and buy a cultivator for weeding.
And on a rather delightful tour of his 5 to 6 hectares,
he introduced us to the five women who help sort his tobacco leaves...
What are you doing, sister?
...and he pointed out all the many crops that he's now growing, from maize to citrus fruit.
He also pointed out the clucking chickens and, to everyone's delight,
showed us his swimming-pool-sized tilapia farm that he'd recently opened.
There's everything going on here.
Now, he was in a good mood because this year's tobacco harvest is a whopper.
