Dear Sir,

We are a manufacturer of draft animal as well as tractor drawn implements
for the application of Conservation Agriculture, ripping/furrowing and
Organic No-till for communal as well as commercial farmers.

We manufacture a special designed rip/furrower attachment for any
traditional DA plough frame  with replaceable ripper tine and adjustable
furrowed wings.

We have successfully developed an animal drawn planter that can accommodate
all common large seed species,like maize,pearl millet,sunflower and beans.

Our implements are successfully used in the northern communal dry land crop
production areas with erratic as well as low rainfall of 120-200 mm /annum.

The average national crop yield in our communal lands is a low 330 kg/ha.By
applying the CA method together with our implements,farmers are able to
reach yields up to 6.1 tons of Pearl Millet during the 2013-2014 crop
season with averages of 2500 kg/ha(no fertiliser used)

We have also exported implements to the Yaajeende /USAID project in Senegal
where farmers where able to harvest even in severe drought situation.

Please visit our fb site for more information and feel free to contact us
at the address below.

Yours in CA for food security

Gerhard Baufeldt
