Fields look promising

The year 2025 looks encouraging when one cast his/her eyes in the land.

Few farming fields look fallow as many fields have been cultivated or a being planted now to ensure food security. The Agriculture ministry has been allocated over L 1.5 Billion in the three consecutive years but had shown little results of that money allocated to it.

But this year there are summer showers that are being experienced by the country and many farmers are going to the fields to ensure that the production of Maize, Sorghum and beans is there without any excuse.

A farmer from Mahloenyeng Taemane Thakalekoala was administering top soil fertilizer to some maize stalks that don't have green colour. His maize looks healthy though in the majority of the field.

"I think everyone is planting and making sure that they tilt the land to ensure food availability. For the past three years agriculture was not good but we are hoping to harvest something this year," Thakalekoala

Agriculture minister Thabo Mofosi has recently encouraged Basotho farmers to ensure summer groping and cultivation. He has told the farmers to approach banks to borrow money for Agriculture but the process seems to be challenging, some farmers are complaining on the local radio stations.
