Agri Kultuur January / January 2018 | Page 3

Editorial | Redaksie I t is a brand New Year filled with many challenges and promise. Our wish for 2018 is: “There will be no New Year for those who keep living in the older years! If you real- ly want to enter a new year, shut all the doors behind you and stick yourself to the New Year where everything is ready for you to be designed by you! Every man is an artist and every artist has the power to create infinite things; just be in the pres- ent time and design your life! No man can design his life by being in the past because present time is the only studio we can do our work!” - Mehmet Murat ildan Ons span by Agrikultuur is reeds ‘n geruime tyd terug by die werk waar ons, soos altyd, ons bes gedoen het om bruikbare, praktiese artikels na jou te bring. Ek kan ook nie nalaat om sommer ‘n groot dankie te sê aan ons lojale skrywers wat weereens gesorg het dat ons in hierdie uitgawe weer super leesstof kon publiseer. AgriKultuur |AgriCulture In this edition Henk Stander, provides our readers with comprehensive ideas and prac- tical detail to assist you in building your own aquaponics system while Dr Felix Reinders elaborates on alleviating hunger and poverty with irrigation, to name but a few. Ek vertrou dat ons verskeidenheid artikels iets vir almal bied. Lewer gerus kommentaar en vertel ons gerus wat julle van hou en waaroor ons moet berig. Enige voorstelle is altyd wel- kom. I leave you with the following quote: “A new year always comes with a new hope for a new beginning, but new begin- ning is not only starting something new, it is more about improving upon things not going right or went wrong last year. After all, it is a just a new date, the journey con- tinues!”  ― Shahenshah Hafeez Khan Until next time Chris 3
