Living Land - Episode 4: Post graduate Farmers

In this episode, we discover how three former students are making the transition from studying at agricultural college to practical farming on a real farm. Thanks to the vision of an uncle who inspired them in their youth, they are now living their dream of earning a living from the soil.
Two brothers, Sello and Ncinani, both graduates of the Glen Agricultural College in Free State Province, were fortunate enough to find a landowner near Bloemfontein in need of someone with agricultural knowledge to turn the land into a profit-earning farm. Naturally, the siblings couldn’t wait to try out their knowledge and skill. Sello mainly produces vegetables like spinach, beetroot and green peppers, while Ncinani runs a successful piggery.
Ncinani’s wife Thandi is also a full partner in the business which, despite many trials and challenges, is steadily growing. To the extent that the farm prospers, the three partners are creating more and more job opportunities for others; an aspect that they are fully aware of and rightfully proud of their achievements so far.
