Abstract
Since the beginning of massive land redistribution in Zimbabwe in the 2000s, the image of «collapse» of commercial agriculture became a widely-accepted understanding of the land reform in this country. The study shows that although production of main crops has declined since the early 2000s, the agriculture in Zimbabwe is not only far from total failure, but starts to recover. Zimbabwe’s land redistribution has reduced racial and class inequalities in land ownership, and brought into being the potentially productive agrarian structure.
