Government Surveys 15,000 Farms for Title Deed Issuance

By Africazine

The Zimbabwean government is advancing its land tenure programme, surveying thousands of farms for title deed issuance.

Approximately 15,000 farms have been surveyed under this initiative, with the government now processing title deeds for these properties. The Land Tenure Stakeholders Engagement Committee chairperson emphasized the importance of farmers registering their unsurveyed land at local offices to facilitate the surveying process.

Surveying Farms for Title Deeds in Zimbabwe

The government is actively working to provide secure and bankable tenure to beneficiaries of the Land Reform Programme. So far, between 10,000 and 15,000 farms have been completely surveyed, allowing for the processing of title deeds. Farmers are encouraged to verify their land’s survey status at district lands offices before heading to the One-Stop Centre in Harare.

Many farmers have traveled long distances, only to find that their farms have not been surveyed. This situation highlights the need for proper registration and verification to streamline the process. The government aims to establish the number of farms needing surveys in each district, which will help deploy survey teams more efficiently.

Decentralizing the Title Deed Process

The title deed programme, launched by President Mnangagwa, aims to conclude Zimbabwe’s Land Reform Programme. The government anticipates that around 360,000 A1 farmers and 24,000 A2 farmers will eventually receive title deeds. To facilitate this, officials will register farmers during provincial agricultural shows, bringing services closer to farming communities.

This decentralized approach is expected to ease the pressure on the Harare One-Stop Centre and accelerate the issuance of title deeds, making the process more accessible for farmers across the country.

Next Steps for Farmers

  • Farmers must register their unsurveyed land at local district lands offices.
  • Survey teams will be deployed based on registration data from farmers.
  • Officials will conduct registrations during provincial agricultural shows.

Zimbabwe is committed to securing land tenure for its farmers through efficient surveying and title deed issuance.
