Manica Youth Assembly (MAYA) today visited Dangamvura Mountain to warn and inform prospective urban farmers that the Dangamvura mountain and other surrounding mountains are not up for cultivation purposes. Prospective urban farmers should approach Mutare City Council to be allocated pieces of land that is reserved for farming so as to avoid increasing deforestation and contributing to more climate change crisis bedeviling our beautiful eastern highlands. Mountains surrounding our precious City should be protected at all costs for future use with the future generations thus MAYA advocates for the protection of these mountains from urban farming from the prospective urban land users.  Residents and City Council should maximize their efforts to plant more indigenous trees that will in turn protect the soil through roots and also through the shade provided for other species around. These trees will also act as windbreaks. Biodiversity is critical and necessary for our survival therefore there is a need for robust action against deforestation and land degradation for selfish gains and jeopardizing future uses.
