Farming beyond the pandemic & top traits of a future focused farmer

Covid-19 reshaped South Africa’s agricultural and food sectors. This week on Farmer’s Inside Track, we have great advice to navigate a future beyond the pandemic. Plus, we discuss the top traits of a future-focused farmer. In our animal nutrition segment, we chat to sheep farmer Relobohile Selete. And we get some expert advice from Marí Bronkhorst from Voermol Feeds. We welcome agricultural legal expert Katlego Ngwane, also known as the legal boeremeisie. She shares a few handy tips for up-and-coming farmers. This week's #SoilSista, powered by Food for Mzansi and Corteva Agriscience, is none other than Tika Maapola. She’s a force to be reckoned with, and currently completing a year-long programme with the GIBS Entrepreneurship Development Academy. On the top of our reading list this week is, Atomic habits: an easy & proven way to build good habits & break bad ones by James Clear. And, our farmer tip of the week comes from livestock auctioneer Athenkosi Denga.
