KwaZulu-Natal Agricultural Union

Kwanalu's strategic focus is to provide leadership on all key agricultural issues to commercial farmers (of all sizes) and related agricultural organisations in KZN. This will be achieved by developing top level skills in lobbying, facilitating and advising. Kwanalu will collect, collate and interpret all relevant information and further develop its capacity to ensure it has excellent communication with all its members.

The weeks' security tip:

Trees, shrubs, tall grass or buildings near a gate are ideal hiding
places, and should be removed if possible.

Eat it, drink it, wear it, Agri SA, Kwanalu and the farmers of South Africa produce it.
