OVER the past three weeks, Khuba Traders has been on a valuable journey across Eswatini, connecting with farmers and celebrating the heart of agriculture at various regional shows. From Madlangampisi on July 8, 2025, to kaGesawu on July 10, Ludzeludze on July 15, Ngwempisi on July 17, Nhlangano on July 22 and the latest edition on Thursday, July 24, at KoNtjingila at the Southern RDA, these events have been a vibrant showcase of Eswatini’s farming community. 
A celebration of farmers and their yields 
These agriculture shows, organised by the Ministry of Agriculture, are more than just gatherings, they’re a celebration of the hard work and dedication of Eswatini farmers. 
At each event, farmers bring their finest produce to compete for recognition of the best yields in their regions. Khuba Traders has been proud to contribute to these events, not only by supporting the competitions, but also by engaging directly with farmers to understand their needs and share in their victories. “Meeting our customers face-to-face at these shows has been invaluable, fostering stronger relationships and allowing us to tailor our solutions to their unique challenges.” 

Showcasing innovation and sustainability 
One of the standout features at these shows has been the presence of VUTSELA, an organisation making waves with its innovative bio-gas digesters. These systems transform compost into methane gas for cooking and other domestic uses, while also producing high-value slurry fertiliser for gardens. “Khuba Traders is thrilled to see such sustainable solutions gaining traction, as they align with our vision for a nation that relies less on grid-supplied energy and reduces overall energy consumption.” For more information on VUTSELA’s groundbreaking work, contact adminvutsela@streec.org. 
Engaging farmers through their website 

“Throughout the tour, we’ve introduced farmers to our website, sparking excitement among both young and old. The platform has been met with enthusiastic reception, driving organic engagement and promising to strengthen our connection with the farming community. It’s been heart-warming to see how this digital tool is empowering farmers to access our products and services more easily, ensuring we remain a trusted partner in their agricultural journey.” 

Khuba Traders’ commitment to farmers 
At every show, Khuba Traders has brought their A-game, with a minimum of five assistants on hand to provide sales support and consultations. “Our team has worked tirelessly to offer solutions tailored to farmers’ needs, from seeds and tools to expert advice on improving yields. These interactions have reinforced our commitment to being more than just a supplier; we’re a partner in the success of Eswatini’s farmers.” 
Looking ahead: Lubombo Re¬gion awaits 
The journey doesn’t stop here! Yesterday, Khuba Traders headed to the Lubombo Region for two more exciting shows: KaLanga on Tuesday, July 29, 2025 and Sipho¬faneni tomorrow, July 31, 2025. “We can’t wait to wrap up this incredible tour by connecting with even more farmers in Eswatini’s stunning landscapes.” 

An invitation to farmers 
“To farmers in Siphofaneni, we invite you to reach out to Khuba Traders at 7802 8999 to place orders or request delivery of specific items to the upcoming shows. Let us bring the solutions you need directly to you.” Khuba Traders is honoured to be part of Eswatini’s agricultural community and they look forward to continuing this journey of growth, innovation and celebration with farmers.
