About Us
Training People in the Business of Farming
Since opening our doors in 2000 and officially registering as a Non-Profit Company in 2004, Buhle Farmers Academy has remained steadfast in
our commitment to social transformation through agricultural education.
As a registered non-profit organization, every resource we receive is directly channelled
into advancing our educational programs, supporting our students, and strengthening South Africa's agricultural sector. Our non-profit status reflects our
unwavering dedication to serving communities rather than generating profit – ensuring that impact, not income, drives every decision we make.
Our mission is to train and support new and emerging farmers to run farming businesses that are profitable, sustainable, and socially impactful, contributing to poverty reduction and enhancing food security in Africa.
Our mission goes beyond traditional agricultural education.
We envision a prosperous Africa where every community has access to skilled agripreneurs driving food security, economic growth, and sustainable development.
Our tagline ‘Training People in the Business of Farming’ reflects our core philosophy. While others focus solely on production techniques, we ensure our graduates understand the complete agricultural value chain—from soil to market.
Position Buhle Farmers Academy as the leading agricultural training provider across Africa, expanding our proven model and building a network of impactful training centers.
Leverage technology to support farmers remotely through mobile learning, online marketplaces, and digital monitoring beyond classroom training.
Deliver targeted, evolving training that addresses key skills gaps, blending traditional farming with innovations like vertical farming, automation, and agri-tech.
Strengthen alliances with governments, NGOs, and global partners to scale our impact and open opportunities for emerging farmers.
Integrate robotics, smart farming, e-commerce, and digital tools to attract and equip youth for modern, global agriculture.
Offer comprehensive, practical training across the entire value chain—emphasizing business, compliance, and market readiness.
