Establishment of a chair in agricultural development

The Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences at the University of the Free State (UFS) received an amount of R300 000 from the Land Bank for the establishment of a chair in agricultural development.  The funds will be used to disseminate agricultural information at a national and provincial level for the establishment of a training unit for small-scale farmers and to support these farmers in the commercialisation of their operations.
