Bophelong Farmers Cooperative

The LeBoheme farm, owned by the Calais Community Property Association (CCPA), is 450ha in extent, of which 287ha are of arable land. The CCPA is made up of 383 members, part of whom form the 28 members of the Bophelong Farmers Co-operative, which leases 28ha from the CCPA. Bophelong has been operating on a two year lease arrangement from the CCPA. TechnoServe believe that the farm has the potential to generate revenues in excess of R3m and employ in excess of 150 people once fully operational. This potential to become commercially viable will only be reached however, once a long term lease and beneficiation plan between Bophelong and the CCPA is developed and accepted, and finance to revamp the whole farming operations is secured.
