Hi Friends, This farm update is coming to you from AFRICA. It was an honor to be hosted by the Afrikaner farming community in Southern Namibia. Below is a brief recap of the trip! Episode 1 of 4 is live NOW:
Namibia is the driest country in sub-saharan Africa. During a good year rainfall rarely exceeds 8” annually. However, my visit to Namibia came on the heels of a 12 year drought. Rainfall during this time period dropped to as little as 1 inch per calendar year for 12 years straight. This decade-long drought ended in early 2025, restoring forage to the landscape and hope to the farming population of Namibia. We (my brother and I) were hosted by the Afrikaner farming community in Namibia. Afrikaners are southern Africans, descendants of the Dutch, German, and Huguenots settlers who settled southern Africa in the 1600’s. The word “Afrikaner” is simply Dutch for African. The Afrikaner population is estimated at 2.8 million as of 2025 and makes up .2% of the entire population of Africa. The Afrikaner farmers I visited raise meat sheep as well as cattle for the food supply chain of Southern Africa. These stockmen offer their best breeding stock (referred to as "stud" animals) to other farmers in the region in order to help those neighboring farms to improve productivity and profitability.
