In this week’s edition of Farmer’s Inside Track we get to meet Mosesi Mosesi, an up-and-coming hydroponics and aquaponics farmer in South Africa’s well-known Tembisa township. This urban farmer does not hesitate to share his aquaponics knowledge, often expressing gratitude for the great economic opportunity his farm has provided to both him and his community through fresh produce sales. The interviewers are Dawn Noemdoe and Kobus Louwrens from Food For Mzansi.

Farmer’s Inside Track is a platform for South Africa’s up-and-coming farmers and new entrants into agri-businesses who need information and inspiration to help them start up and get up to sprinting speed as commercial producers and/or agri-processors. The men and women who have resolved to one day getting to the place where the large-scale commercial farmers are, but not really finding useful information on how to get there.

This platform is a resource of exclusive content and an online community that aims to support up-and-coming commercial farmers through that tricky phase of their businesses that comes between the starter pistol and finding their stride in the sprint towards the finish line.

At the centre of it is a free weekly Farmer’s Inside Track e-mailer containing a mix of exclusive content from agricultural thought leaders, business and entrepreneurship experts and leading farmers as well as a comprehensive rundown of need-to-know news from the past week. Also, it’s a great source for those on the lookout new opportunities and funding.
