Mavis Hlatshwayo (55) has always worked hard to ensure that her children have a good education, and now they assist their mother in growing her herd of Nguni cattle and with various other aspects of running a farm.
Mavis's son, Vincent, studied animal production, and now helps his mother and various other members of the community in farming and animal husbandry.
With the help of Grain SA, a non-profit organisation representing the grain producers of South Africa, the Hlatshwayo farm has implemented new farming techniques and are now harvesting over 8 tons per hectare.
"I want to increase the number of hectares I'm farming on and move forward," says Mavis.
