Kubikwa abalimi abanengi bayehluleka ukuqhuba inhlelo zabo zokulima ngenxa yokuhamba kwamagetsi obekucina kubangela ukuthi behluleke ukuthola amanzi okuthelela izilimo zabo zicine zisitsha ngenxa yokuswela amanzi.

“Phakathi kwama- irrigation amathathu abalisa iRustlers, Sebatse, Mankonkoni yiyo esiqalile ukusebenzisa isolar mini grid le njalo kukhangelelwe ukuthi baphane amathuba okusebenzisa umtshina lo ukuze bonke benelise ukuthelela izilimo zabo.
