DON'T MISS THE NEW
SENWES SCENARIO
WHICH APPEARS
IN APRIL!
CHRISTMAS JOY!
Kernel, Senwes’ mascot helped
to bring some joy to the hearts
of 590 children during the 10th
Senwes Christmas Tree project
which took place in October. Read
more about this on page 22.
We focus on AC, Grain SA's Grain
Producer of the Year, as well as
another stalwart producer near
Klerksdorp, Theuns Britz, who
farms just across the Vaal River.
The Area Focus is on Klerksdorp
and Senwes head office in
Klerksdorp. Senwes was also in
the limelight a number of times
– when it received the IRMSA and
several others awards.
The Senwes Scenario research has
been finalised and our readers
can look forward to an exciting
new edition of Senwes Scenario
in April.
