THE FUSE

South African farmers face growing pressures in 2026, from climate variability and rising input costs to market and policy uncertainty. NAMPO Harvest Day, taking place from 12 to 15 May at NAMPO Park near Bothaville, addresses these challenges under the theme “Resilience through Innovation.” As the largest agricultural exhibition in the Southern Hemisphere, NAMPO brings together producers, agribusinesses, and technology providers to share practical solutions, test new equipment, and explore strategies that strengthen farm performance. For farmers, the event is an opportunity to see firsthand how innovation can increase efficiency, reduce risk, and improve profitability, while networking with peers and industry experts. It is a space where ideas turn into actions that can be implemented on the farm.
