Every year FORTRESS sponsors a visit of the final year

In Baynesfield, Natal.
The students are given a lecture about
FORTRESS activities and during a tour around the farm
they are interacting
with us about the practical applications of farming on
FORTRESS.
Farmers' Days
On a regular basis practical lessons on cattle selection,
cattle care, pasture improvement and other farming related
subjects are organised. Subscribe now indicating your interest.
Experience Exchange An "open book" policy regarding any aspect
including financial details of farming has made them many
friends. They welcome visits by other farmers and also
like to visit them. They encourage sporadic and repeated
exchanges of experiences and are very open to criticism
and new promising experiments. Feel free to contact Fortress. |
