Exciting things are happening at North-West University / Noordwes-Universiteit! The Agricultural Sciences group recently had the opportunity to showcase to management our progress in developing a new research farm in Potchefstroom, just 4 km from the main campus. We are engaging with industry, collaborating with farmers, and working hard to implement a long-term trial that will serve as a research platform for more sustainable agricultural systems.

I recently had the priviledge to participate in and present at the inaugural Unit for Environmental Sciences and Management - NWU Postgraduate Conference. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow students from various research groups and share insights on how my study relates to other concepts being researched at North-West University / Noordwes-Universiteit. The engaging discussions sparked new ideas and potential collaborations that I’m eager to explore. Grateful for the experience and inspired by the collective commitment to advancing collaborative research.
