WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Africa-Agriculture, one of the leading agricultural research and communications firm on the continent has announced that major agricultural funds, African ministries of agriculture, development partners and project promoters are some of the players that are expected at the conference.
The conference will see delegates thrashing out issues around public and private partnerships (PPPs) and the role of business in addressing food security in sub-Saharan Africa.
According to the organisers, major officials and senior level decision-makers from in and around the continent have confirmed their participation at the Africa Agriculture Investment and Product Innovation Conference.
Some of these include Agra, the Southern African German Chamber of Commerce, the South African and Angolan Chamber of Commerce, ZFC Zimbabwe, Karuturi Ltd and the Agricultural Finance Corporation among others.
Africa-Agriculture executive director Mr Talent Moyo, said his organisation was delighted once more again to host public and private sector leaders in a bid to advance strategic partnerships seeking to boost growth and improve the agricultural investment climate.
South African Minister of Agriculture Tina Joemat-Pettersson and her African counterparts will host the Ministerial Round table at which strategies in driving growth and increase agricultural investment competitiveness in Africa will be discussed.
There will also be other sessions on agricultural regional integration, partnerships, commodities, and product innovation.
Africa-Agriculture sponsorship manager Mr Calvin Ncube said the event will also host exhibitions, which will profile some of Africa’s key players which seek to boost investments playing a major role in economic development and improving rural agriculture.
The forum will discuss initiatives on mobilising private sector investments into agriculture.
Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation chairman Mr Bill Gates recently challenged developed countries and donors to unite in a bid to accelerate job creation and poverty reduction through sustainable investments in
African agriculture, while expanding agricultural production and improving food security.
He urged investment in African agricultural programmes, particularly those designed to boost the viability of subsistence farming in the world’s less privileged nations.
