Our farm in Botswana spans a total of 1840 hectares, offering ample space for agricultural activities. Approximately 1000 hectares of citrus will be developed by quarter 1 of 2026. Navels, Valencia’s, grapefruit, lemons, and premium mandarin varieties have been planted

To ensure sufficient irrigation for the farm, we have constructed a 12-kilometre pipeline stretching from the water utilities plant near Selebi-Phikwe. This pipeline follows a road around the BCL mine and extends all the way to the farm. During the pipeline construction, we encountered various challenges, such as heavy rainfall causing trench flooding and unexpected historical discoveries.

One remarkable find was the uncovering of a delicate human skeleton, believed to belong to a person of royal descent. To handle this sensitive matter, a local archaeologist carefully excavated the 400-year-old grave. Currently, the skeleton is housed in Gaborone at the University of Botswana, where researchers are studying the remains, to determine its origins and the history of the ancient inhabitants of the area.

Once this process is complete, the remains will be reburied near its original resting place, accompanied by clear markings to avoid future disturbance. It is worth noting that these remains represent the oldest complete skeleton discovered in Botswana to date, making it of immense significance to the country and its understanding of its past
