Attendees of the Mzansi Young Farmers Indaba, taking place from Thursday, 4 to Saturday, 6 April, will benefit from complimentary blood sugar, cholesterol, and BMI tests conducted by professional nurses, as well as access to social workers. These services will be provided by Incon Health, an exhibitor at the three-day event.

Incon Health will be situated within the Health For Mzansi exhibition area at the indaba. Furthermore, attendees will have the opportunity to sample some of B-well’s finest heart-healthy products. B-Well takes pride in its locally sourced products, cultivated from the golden fields of the Western Cape and delivered straight to your kitchen.

“Health is wealth, particularly for our farmers,” says Ronelle Louwrens, the publisher of Health For Mzansi, a sister publication of Food For Mzansi. She underscores the close interconnection between health and food production.

“They go together like … South Africa and sunny days. How food is produced, prepared and consumed is at the core of a healthy life. We want our young farmers to be aware of this. To look after themselves and the rest of the country,” Louwrens adds.

She emphasises the irony that, despite farmers’ pivotal role in ensuring food security, they frequently neglect their own health.

Louwrens describes Health For Mzansi as the essential farmers’ guide for enhancing resilience, energy, and overall well-being. “We invite you to access expert advice on nutrition, safety, and disease prevention at this year’s Mzansi Young Farmer’s Indaba”

THE NEW FACE OF SOUTH AFRICAN AGRICULTURE

With 21 global awards in the first six years of its existence, Food For Mzansi is much more than an agriculture publication. It is a movement, unashamedly saluting the unsung heroes of South African agriculture. We believe in the power of agriculture to promote nation building and social cohesion by telling stories that are often overlooked by broader society.
