The AgriVuno Women in Agri Accelerator Program is an innovative, transformative initiative specifically designed for female farmers in South Africa. This 12 week program is a concerted effort to not only uplift these hardworking women but also equip them with the essential tools and skills to expand their business horizins.
Our pilot is in the Mpumalanga and Limpopo region. We reached over 6 000 individuals across our social media platforms and received over 260 applications from female farmers in these provinces. A rigorous process of shortlisting followed and saw us choosing 50 farmers that met the following criteria;
• Company showed be female-owned or female led
• Have been in operation for atleast 6 months to 1 year
• Proof of trade
• Program fit in terms of what benefit the farmer could receive from the program
