Dear Minister
My name is Thandiwe Radebe I was born in Soweto grew up in Koster where my father was a farm worker came back to Johannesburg due to my father's boss grew old and died. I then learned a lot about farming I grew love and passion. Later I started my own path on farming. I've been farming for more than 10 years now . Things are not where I want but I am pushing forward. I have a land that I do my mix farming. I do paultry, cattle, and I plant crops.
Minister I really struggle, I don't have water, I don't have electricity 😫. I don't have storage. I have been bagging to get assistance. I know my Minister that you are here to make a change I believe in you. Please assist us with a Borehole and structure for storage. And solar energy.
My Minister I have managed to create jobs from my farm, we have planted 80 hectares of soybeans last season. Unfortunately soy didn't do well because of drought.
I am glad I am talking to you. You will understand the predicaments I face everyday., as woman worse as a black farmer. .
Minister before I forget let me congratulate you I am really happy for you , and I believe you will make a different.
I want to assure you that I am a dedicated servant in the farming space, I work very hard.
Please Minister come visit us and see what we do. You will not hesitate to assist us as we commit ourselves to grow even more.
Hope you find my letter well. Looking forward to hear from you
Kind regards
