The annual African Farmers Workshop and Expo is coming up

Farming in South Africa has always been one of the county’s main areas of expertise. South Africa’s favourable climate and nutrient rich soil makes it perfect for large scale agriculture. The industry employs about 1 million people, or 30% of the South African workforce, and is one of six countries in the world that is capable of exporting food on a regular basis. Farming in South Africa can be done with a variety of crops. We are one of the largest producers of a number of foods, like grapefruit, green maize and chicory roots. Due to the huge role South Africa plays in food production, finding the latest farming equipment and tractors for sale is a vital step in staying ahead in the food production industry in South Africa. The best way to keep up with developments in agriculture is to attend events like the African Farmers Workshop and Expo and the 3rd Annual Limpopo Agricultural Expo.

    I have this thing about handcarts, or I should say the lack of handcarts in remote rural areas of most African countries, at both the subsistence and commercial farming levels. I liken it to supermarkets not having shopping carts.
    Do you know why handcarts are virtually absent in many areas where they could be most beneficial and useful.?
    Is it simply because suitable handcarts are not available, therefore there is no demand for them?
    Whatever the reason, I would very much appreciate your opinion, and that of the farmers.
