The harvest begins

These harvest photos were taken over the last two weeks and a good news story is emerging regarding current harvest levels!

One of the farmers photographed is Richard from Emsizini area. A new farmer in 2019, he decided to adopt just a 10 metre by 10 metre section of his land to our Deep Bed farming method. He has just weighed the shelled maize that he harvested from this plot and everyone is amazed as it is a record for a Deep Bed farm. It works out at just under ten tonnes to the hectare! The National average is under 2 tons per hectare so this is an outstanding result.


Other farmers yields in the area are equally promising!


Some farmers have already started tilling land ready for the next crops.
