BUSH HILL FARM IXOPO 2022
Bush Hill Farm, R56, Ixopo:
2022.
This was a temporary contract to advise a family guest farm business in ways to recover from the effects of the Covid 19 pandemic.
There were 4 parts to the agriculture project:
-
Herb/pottager garden outside kitchens - this remained unchanged.
-
Open field monoculture - recommendations were submitted to change to an interplanting system, to replace a single crop butternut, green peppers, and spinach rotation.
-
Shade house - mostly salad plants for the restaurant were planted, nothing was changed.
-
Blueberry hedges - the crop was poor, and nothing could be done to increase the 2022 year's yield.
