Dear Reader
The Organic Farmer magazine continues to provide practical, field-tested knowledge to help farmers stay resilient in the face of changing climate and market conditions. In this edition, we place strong emphasis on climate preparedness. With increasingly erratic rainfall and extreme weather events, timely decision-making is critical.
Our weather advisory and technical guidance highlight the importance of early planning, appropriate crop and variety selection, and practices such as soil conservation, water management, and fodder planning to reduce risks and optimise production throughout the season. We further explore innovations shaping the future of agriculture, from climate-smart crop varieties to dryland farming techniques and emerging agribusiness opportunities such as avocado farming.
As always, TOF remains committed to translating research into simple, actionable insights equipping you not just to cope with change, but to farm with confidence and resilience.
This year, we introduce a digital version of the TOF newsletter to keep you informed throughout the year.
