Thanks and appreciation
As Grain SA, we express our sincere thanks
to all the partners who have made this pro-
gramme possible. Their commitment to in-
vest in the developing sector is a testimony
to their intention to help to transform the
sector so that our country can remain food
secure for generations to come. If the world
should to be able to feed the global popu-
lation, every possible piece of arable land
needs to be put to optimal use. Growing
farmers is a slow process and we appreci-
ate the understanding and commitment dis-
played by our partners, both old and new.
Thank you!
