Agra has organised a one day public lecture on practical farming scheduled for 13 March in Keetmanshoop. According to Agra's Communications Officer, Alida Coertzen, this will be the first of a series of one day public lectures, a concept that is being developed to benefit a wider community in all regions and is based on the pass successes of Agra and the Cheetah Conservation Fund workshops.

She said the Voermeester will also be part of the lecture team and the topics to be covered are supplementation of cattle, an insight into livestock auctions in Namibia, integrating farming and problem animals; basic animal health practices and the use of the Farm First Aid Kit.
Coertzen says there will be practical demonstrations and lots of visual material as part of the programme, and the registration fee is N$50 that will include the lectures and a light lunch.
She said Agra invites all farmers who are interested in learning more about the practical principles of farming to attend the public lecture and interested farmers can contact the Agra branches in Windhoek and Keetmanshoop.
