Horticulture is not growing - BHC chair

During the 23rd biannual conference of the horticultural sector held in Gaborone yesterday, the BHC was urged to minimise its dependence on the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) for it to grow.

The Coordinator of the National Master Plan for the Arable Agriculture and Dairy Development (NAMPAADD) Fred Modise, said that as a business, the horticultural sector and its association needs to transform because if government continues to run it, it will never reach its full potential.
