Environmental Services - Newcastle, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
We entered the agriculture sector in 2016 immediately identifying how farmers still develop orchards in the traditional manner. With great respect said, we realised that the traditional manner got us this far, but we also realised that we have lost half of our topsoil in the last 150 years due to erosion and mismanagement of soil; and that farmers were only farming on non-complex flat terrain. With little orchard development experience we started exploring avenues for developing orchards with technology, whilst having ecology as the core.Fast forward to 2020 and here we are, more than 350ha non-complex and complex orchard development, precision stake out with high tech equipment, high resolution irrigation maps, soil and water monitoring, micro-climate monitoring and finally bee farming with precision bee placement and activity monitoring. We have come to realise "to seize the opportunity by considering possibilities and linking complex ideas through systems thinking in simple, understandable ways".We are proudly South African and as young pioneers we wish to say that we do not have all the answers, but am willing to find them as we work with you.
