By Julian Soutter
Senwes Graduate
H
erman Janse van Rensburg
from Port Arlington was
announced as the 2019
Free State Young Farmer of
the Year. “Young farmers should stop
googling for potential opportunities
abroad - rather google opportunities in
South Africa”, said the newly crowned
winner.
“We cannot expect a positive out-
come with a negative or uninvolved input.
Everyone has a choice to be positive and
constructive or negative and destructive”,
said Francois Wilken, President of Free
State Agriculture.
The 2019 Free State Young Farmer of
the Year conference, which was proud-
ly sponsored by Senwes, was held on
Wednesday, 17 April 2019 at the Monte
Bello Estate in Bloemfontein. Afrikaans
story teller, singer and television presen
ter, Andries Vermeulen, opened the con-
ference with a powerful biblical message
which brought about positive conversation
amongst farmers throughout the day.
The theme of the conference was the
accessibility of resources in a modern
agricultural environment and expert
researchers in the agricultural indus-
try such as Tiaan Terblanche, Phillip
Oosthuizen, Divan van der Westhuizen
and Prof Johan Willemse, touched on
invaluable data and information which
could help young farmers in South
Herman Janse van Rensburg is the
24th winner of the Free State Young
Farmer of the Year award.

Oosthuizen, who addressed the event,
technological and marketing innovations
can give you a short-term competitive
edge, but over the long term it can define
your relevance in the industry.
