"Zimbabwe’s prosperous agricultural sector was built upon a complex foundation of dams and water rights, barn capacities and crop rotations, veterinary disciplines and land management. You cannot destroy such a system and then rebuild it in a year or even a decade. Commercial agriculture stands between Zimbabwe and a future as an aid junkie, a dependent nation trashed by yet another African madman. White farmers are not anachronisms from a distant colonial past, they are amongst the guardians of Zimbabwe’s future viability. They have every right in the world to be so. Now, in their darkest hour, it is time for the world to acknowledge their value, and rights, and reach out to help them."

Documenting the deluge.
