We consult technical experts on all relative aspects of crop farming, right from inception of the growing medium selection, water testing, crop varieties, acceptable growing and harvesting methods, traceability, packaging and delivery standards required.
Our values
Consistent Quality, Intensive Agriculture and Sustainability.
Sustainable
We farm sustainably by ensuring that we receive the best yields possible from our plants using minimal natural resources. We also adopt biological farming practices in our operations.
Intensive
Farming intensively for us means that we are able to produce twice the amount of tonnage/kg’s on a small piece of land than we would have done on additional land. This is made possible by the existing structures on our farm.
Agriculture
Agri is our way of life. We value agriculture because it helps us create more sustainable jobs for the people living in our neighbouring communities. By increasing our production output we are able to contribute towards the fight against food scarcity.
