Agriculture authorities in Matebeland South are inviting all local farmers to attend the upcoming Pre-Planting Workshop scheduled for tomorrow. This annual event marks the launch of the 2024-2025 agriculture season and is designed to equip farmers with essential knowledge and resources for a successful planting year.
The workshop will feature a variety of seed companies, including SeedCo, K2, Valley Seeds, and Zadza Mutara, who will be present to showcase and sell their seeds.
