AGRI-PULSE – RUSTENBURG - Across Africa’s mountainous forests, many tree species play a vital role in the economic, ecological, and cultural life of local communities. Among these is red stinkwood (Prunus africana), a remarkable indigenous tree valued for its medicinal properties, ecological importance, and durable wood. Despite its many benefits, this species now faces serious threats due to overexploitation and habitat pressure.
AGRI-PULSE – BRITS – Semperflora, just outside Brits at Bokfontein, is not only internationally known for growing summer flowers and ornamental grasses, but is also one of South Africa’s largest flower growers.
Agri-Pulse visited the owner and founder of Semperflora, Willem Slootweg, and although the large variety of flowers are impressive, the focus was on the unique ornamental grasses.
