Somabhula is a village and ward in Midlands province, Zimbabwe. It is also the rail junction for Zimbabwe's southern links to Mozambique and South Africa, and an important area for cattle ranching and mixed farming. It was the largest of the land reform projects undertaken by Robert Mugabe and the ZANU-PF government; before the expropriation and allocation of land, the farmland of Somabhula had been an area of concentrated land ownership and speculation by white farmers. It is believed to have been named after an influential Matebele chief.
