Lungile Poultry Farm, located in Watervaal near Siyabuswa, stands as a clear example of how focused planning and support can drive success in agriculture. Established in 2019 by 33 year old Ms Lungile Mkhize, the farm has grown from a small operation into a thriving commercial layer enterprise. With a BTech degree in Agricultural Science Management from Cape Peninsula University of Technology, Lungile entered the sector with both technical knowledge and a clear business vision. Her goal was not only to build a profitable poultry business but also to address pressing social challenges such as unemployment, poverty, and food insecurity. Today, her farm reflects that vision through consistent production, job creation, and skills development.
