May 2020 be a turning point in our history

Mag 2020 ’n draaipunt in ons geskiedenis wees
As ek terugkyk oor die jaar 2019 het dit maar ’n karige opbrengs gelewer, behalwe dalk vir die Rugbywêreldbeker! Die verwagtinge van meer duidelikheid oor grondhervorming en ’n landboumeesterplan wat die sektor kan vorentoe...
