Disaster fund to help farmers

SENWES, one of the largest agri-businesses in the country, has joined forces with Agri SA to establish the Drought Disaster Fund to provide assistance to affected farmers. “This initiative forms part of a more comprehensive effort made in collaboration with various stakeholders,” said Agri SA executive director, Omri van Zyl. “We… call on all South Africans to support the fund. Without your goodwill we will be unable to have an impact on a drought situation that has started to take its toll.” – Staff Reporter
