The region of Strumica has been widely known for its intensive early gardening production. Agriculture is the predominant occupation of people living in rural areas so apart from the household waste, a large amount of waste is also produced from ( ... )
ltural production and instead of being used it is often ploughed in or burnt in the fields. One such type of waste is the agricultural plastic covering foil. The enormous usage of this particular foil in the early gardening production, the absence of organized collection and transportation to collection centers, the absence of recycling facilities in this region as well as the lack of awareness,

Overgrazing and moving of cattle in large has resulted in the formation of these gullies. the gullies are an average of 1.5km length, 1.5m depth and 2m in width. Soil erosion in these areas has greatly contributed in siltation of the lake Mutirikwi.
