34 years old Tlamelo Petrose from Kgokgole Village, outside Ganyesa in the North West, is proving that limited resources do not have to stand in the way of achieving one's dreams. Despite lacking modern farming equipment, his passion for agriculture has never wavered. Petrose has embraced traditional farming methods, using donkeys to plough his fields in preparation for the planting season. From ploughing fields to transporting produce, donkeys remain the backbone of the Petrose family's farming operation in Kgokgole Village outside Ganyesa.
