The Northern Cape Association of Agriculture Educators is hosting a 3-day national conference at Elizabeth Conradie School in Kimberley.

With agriculture driving the economy, especially in rural areas, this symposium aims to encourage learners about the importance of agriculture.

350 delegates from all 9 provinces are gathering to share innovative ideas and strategies for improving agriculture education.

Agriculture has the power to reduce poverty, increase incomes, and enhance food security for 80% of the world's poor, who live and work in rural areas.
