Manus Kotze of Koes has qualified to take part in the South African Pro-Am Grouping Shooting competition that will take place in April 2008 in Pretoria after winning the Safari Den Shooting Competition held from 5 to 7 September during the Stampriet Show.
His precision in shooting landed him a spot in the Top 20 ranking in South Africa, which is a remarkable achievement. He won a 22-250 calibre rifle valued at N$6500 sponsored by Agra, as well as ammunition from PMP.

18 riflemen qualified to take part in the South African grouping shooting championships. The overall winner for the day, Kotze, was in a grouping using 9.68 mm rifles.
Safari Den added a lot of value to the Stampriet Show with a very successful shooting competition which was presented in a professional and safe manner.
As part of its contribution to the Stampriet Show, Agra invited Dr Francois (Faffa) Malan of South Africa who presented an afternoon demonstration by doing a practical analytical post-mortem on parasites and illnesses in animals.
A qualified veterinarian, Dr Malan is well known for his versatile and interesting presentations, and the audience was fascinated by the information he shared in a highly practical and participatory workshop under a tree.
Agra also hosted three auctions at the Stampriet Show namely, a weaner auction as well as a bull auction and small stock slaughter auction. All three auctions were highly successful, with all animals on offer sold at good prices.
Agra hosted the first ever bull auction during the show which can be described as very successful. Agra’s stall had some excellent sales during the show which again shows Agra’s price competitiveness coupled to a good service experience.
