Isabella Rabie and Lulibo Dyani were the first MPS learners to take part in the Moreesburg Agri Youth Show in 2023, competing against 14 other experienced learners in the senior
meat cattle category. They also did us proud by bringing diversity to the show by being the only female learner and learner of colour at the show.

MPS is privileged to partner with Mr. Seymour Currie of Joyce’s Angus Stud who acts as a mentor to our learners, sharing with them his wealth of knowledge as a championship Angus breeder.
In addition MPS is excited to partner with RFID Experts Africa, a subsidiary of BKB, who are planning to erect a fully-automated electronic cattle handling facility on site to give our learners exposure to the latest precision technology used in agricultural management practices.
