THE 2017 FREE State Young Farmer
of the Year is Johann van Huyssteen,
seen on the cover page of this edi-
tion. We visited this dynamic farmer
on the farm Bloekom, between Vir-
ginia and Theunissen, where he told
us more about his title and farming
operations.
Read also about another winner,
the Northwest Young Farmer of the
Year, Ro’an van Tonder, and their
game farming operations. Ons best
wishes accompany him when he
participates in the national leg of the
competition later this year.
Another winner is the very popular
Nation in Conversation series, which
was filmed at Nampo Park for the
fith successive year. Programmes in
this series are already being broad-
casted. .
