Edwin Mahlatsi, new era commercial farmer from Bultfontein, Free State

This patch of farming land in Bultfontein carries a lot of meaning for Edwin Mahlatsi. He grew up in the area, and later became the foreman of the farm Swartlaagte. Edwin joined Grain SA, a non-profit organisation representing the grain producers of South Africa, after the death of his employer at Swartlaagte left him without work, lacking capital or equipment. Grain SA helped Edwin gain a leasing agreement for the farm. As a team, Edwin and Grain SA developed a plan to put the 210 hectares of soil to best use. The teamwork of his daughter Doreen and Grain SA mentor Christiaan Bouwer have helped Edwin yield 5,5 tons per hectare of maize.
