About Us
ERG Farming (Pty) Ltd is a 100% black-owned agricultural enterprise in Mpumalanga, specializing in sustainable crops, livestock, poultry, and eggs for local and national markets.
About Us
Elizabeth and Russell Group “known as ERG farming PTY Ltd” is a 100% black local owned agricultural farming enterprise located at the Ehlanzeni district, Mpumalanga Province.
The Business founders/directors are Mr. Sibusiso Russell Mlambo and Mrs. Mookgo Elizabeth Mlambo and started the business in 2020 by first purchasing 16 hectors of land. The business further expanded in 2023 by leasing (with an option to buy) 147 hectors of land till present.
The project is a mixed farming project running at climate smart, intensive, integrated farming practices which are value chain driven.
Currently, we have:
Cattle, sheep and goats
Layer chickens (producing at least 1000 eggs/day sold to local markets in Mpumalanga)
Broiler chickens (sold to local markets)
Crops (Soybeans sold predominantly to EDEN, and Millies sold to local markets)
We have recently completed the construction and installation of Cattle handling facilities with a capacity of holding 2000 herd of cattle at a time. It is in our plans to also introduce cattle to the farm before the end of this year.
ERG farming holds a preapproval for commercial poultry under the MESP Programme from the Mpumalanga Dept. of Agriculture. We have successfully implemented and maintain a well-structured Biosecurity plan throughout the ERG Farm.
This project is now nearing a state of being a pioneer of the upcoming Mpumalanga International Fresh Produce market.
