Episode 542
Sunday, 11 January, 2026
In this episode, Pholisa Bidla, a livestock farmer managing a successful meat operation in the Eastern Cape, operates entirely from her home in Gauteng. From helping her family care for a small herd of cattle as a child to taking full responsibility for the farm after the loss of her parents and brother, she shares her journey, challenges, and hard-earned lessons. Bidla discusses everything from breeding programmes, veterinary care, and biosecurity to the importance of strong relationships with neighbours, employees, and the department of agriculture. She also offers practical advice for new farmers entering the livestock industry.
