OPERATIONAL COSTS FOR THE FARMER
DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME
THE PROGRAMME BASE: PURPOSEFUL PEOPLE
AND PROJECTS
To think…that everything you do has a ripple effect, that every
word you speak and every action you take, affects other people
– and the planet…This changes the way one lives.
The Farmer Development Programme of Grain SA has run for many
years now and has been made possible by the generous contributions
of our donors and partners. It has relied on the expertise of a skilled
and dedicated personnel corps. These personnel operate from strate-
gically placed offices in key grain growing regions and this in turn has
enabled linkages with – and the implementation of – a number of other
compatible projects.
We are fortunate to have partners who share our vision, believe
in our work and who sponsor the costs of the various offices where
we have development co-ordinators and office administrators. In
Bloemfontein there is a core of personnel who manage the many
aspects of this dynamic programme and deal with the financial
management. The support to the offices is essential to the entire
programme and we are most appreciative of their support.

BEDRYFSKOSTE VAN DIE LANDBOU-
ONTWIKKELINGSPROGRAM
DIE PROGRAMBASIS: DOELGERIGTE MENSE
EN PROJEKTE
Om te dink…dat alles wat jy doen ’n rimpeleffek het, dat elke
woord wat jy sê en elke ding wat jy doen ander mense – en die
planeet – raak...Dit verander die manier waarop jy leef.
Graan SA se Landbou-ontwikkelingsprogram is reeds jare lank
aan die gang en word deur die ruim bydraes van ons skenkers en
vennote moontlik gemaak. Dit maak op die kundigheid van ’n vaardige
en toegewyde personeelkorps staat. Hierdie personeel werk uit
strategies-geplaasde kantore in belangrike graanproduserende streke,
en dit maak weer skakeling met en die implementering van ’n aantal
ander versoenbare projekte moontlik.
Ons is gelukkig om vennote te hê wat ons visie deel, in ons werk
glo en die koste borg van die verskillende kantore waar ons ontwikke-
lingsbestuurders en kantooradministrateurs het. In Bloemfontein is
daar ’n kerngroep personeel wat die talle aspekte van hierdie dina-
miese program bestuur en die finansiële bestuur hanteer. Die steun
aan die kantore is noodsaaklik vir die hele program en ons waardeer
hulle ondersteuning geweldig.
