Production planning is essential to optimise resource use, minimise waste, and ensure consistent yields. It helps farmers align their farming practices with market demands and seasonal variations, leading to improved profitability.

Additionally, proper planning aids in managing risks like climate change and fluctuating input costs, ensuring sustainability in operations.


In this episode, Nqaba Mfaxa, the junior production manager at Saratoga Fruit Estate, discusses the importance of market research, natural resource management, the technologies available for production planning and more.
