Mohale’s Hoek, Sept.12 — SADP’s Project Field Officer Mr. Lesetla Makoae has applauded farmers who have worked really hard to put Majantja on the map after scooping the first price in crops and vegetables production at the Farmers Pitso Awards.
Mr. Makoae stated this in an interview with the Agency on Thursday noting that farmers do not shy away from trying new breeds and seeking guidance from Extension Officers, stating that after having advised them to use Frost Blanket, farmers have been able to produce tomatoes all year round.
One of them, a 25-year-old Ms. Seithati Chefa from Ha- Panta, who graduated from the Lesotho Agricultural College in 2021, noted her passion for farming started in 2018 way before going to the college, after watching her father investing his time and energy in farming. . .
