We also request that we recruit new members to keep our local team strong and going, we have few trainings that must take place before June 2017 which will help young farmers in developing farming and other business skills.

We also ask if the current committee come up with a date of the meeting during April 2017 to see how many members that we still habe and also see if we will be able to elect new committee and also discuss the opportunities that the Agriculture Department has for us.

Lungelo Mabizela, 28 year-old entrepreneur from Howick in Kwa Zulu Natal started an electrical repair and maintenance company called Nkuluzavu Trading with his brother. He soon realised that his passion was farming and decided to approach the NYDA through Umgeni Local Youth Office (LYO) for assistance to establish his new agricultural venture.

Having received advice, Lungelo opted to attend the Business Management Training (BMT) Short Course which was held at Umgeni LYO. The course managed to assist Lungelo with costing, research and marketing, which enabled him to pursue his goal of starting his own company Green Africa Group. He planted his first crop of cabbages in Colenso where he is leasing land using his own capital.
Four (4) months later, he sold his first crop of cabbages to Fresh Market. To date, the business has a turnover of R340 000 per annum and has employed five (5) people, permanently.
Other NYDA Business Development Services (BDS) intervention have been recommended to Lungelo, which will assist the business to operate more professionally in the future.
Lungelo attributes his success to the knowledge he gained during his training facilitated by NYDA.

Community-run Indigenous Nurseries

Umsizi’s community-run indigenous nursery strives to firstly, develop skills in community members and thereafter develop a functional enterprise which is fully run by the trained individuals. Individuals are trained in indigenous plant propagation and plant identification so that they are able to rescue plants from mining- or construction- areas. The propagated plants are subsequently used for landsite rehabilitation or for indigenous landscaping. One long-term objective of the project is to ultimately facilitate poverty eradication through skills development and job creation within an area.

The project also aims to instil a sense of ownership among communities, and to empower them to develop their own community projects by using the skills and training they have received. The nursery includes the er****on of infrastructure, namely, five (5) green- and hothouses, which provide employment to community members. This project has been successfully implemented within Roossenekal, Limpopo Province, with 14 full time jobs being created and the local mine buying all indigenous vegetation required for rehabilitation projects from the community-run nursery.
