Dwayne Kaschula Watch | From 16-year-old farmworker to SA’s top young farmer

By Lloyd Phillips

Dwayne Kaschula (38) was named the Toyota SA/AgriSA Young Farmer of the Year for 2024 in November last year.

African Farming visited him shortly thereafter at his Masizakhe Farming in the Nqanqarhu (Maclear) district in the Eastern Cape, to learn about his fascinating journey from 16-year-old farmworker to award-winning farmer.

Be sure to keep an eye on African Farming for our in-depth interview with Dwayne in which he shares his experiences, lessons and successes.
