Dié landmerkgeleentheid op die Sentraal-Suid-Afrikaanse kalender word van 16 tot 20 Mei 2022 buite Bothaville in die Vrystaat aangebied ná ’n twee jaar lange onderbreking weens Covid-19-regulasies. Dit sal ook die eerste keer wees dat dié vertoonvenster oor vyf dae aangebied word.

OFM is nie net die amptelike mediavennoot van die geleentheid nie, maar beplan ook 'n verskeidenheid aktiwiteite tydens Graan SA se NAMPO Oesdag 2022.

Dit sluit in: regstreekse uitsendings vanaf NAMPO Park met OFM se Mid-Morning Magic and At Lunch programme, Maandag tot Vrydag, met 'n toegewyde Agri-uur 11:00 – 12:00; toegewyde verkeersopdaterings deur die dag om te verseker dat luisteraars veilig na en van die geleentheid reis; en spesiale Pop Up Radio-aktiverings by geselekteerde uitstallers.

OFM het ook spesiale advertensiepakkette geskep om uitstallers en landboubelanghebbendes te help om die beste bemarkingsgeleenthede te benut wat NAMPO Oesdag 2022 bied.

“Of jy nou by vanjaar se NAMPO Oesdag kan wees of nie, OFM-radio-advertensies sal seker maak dat ons luisteraars ingelig is oor al die nuutste tendense en produkte van die uitstallers. Ons is opgewonde om weer 'n mate van normaliteit te geniet en om die landbousektor te ondersteun. Boer dat dit bars!” sê Anchen Lintvelt, OFM-verkoopsbestuurder, wat met navrae gekontak kan word by anchen@ofm.co.za.

Volgens die organiseerders kan landbouprodusente en die publiek weer eerstehands ervaar hoe moderne landbou lyk. Die 54ste NAMPO Oesdag, wat as die hartklop van landbou in Suid-Afrika beskou word, bied 'n unieke platform waardeur produsente kennis kan uitbrei en nuwe tegnologie en produktiwiteitsoplossings kan verken. Verder bied NAMPO nie net 'n geleentheid vir gesprek en dialoog nie, maar stel dit ook die publiek en ander rolspelers in staat om kommersiële landbou en voedselveiligheid en -sekuriteit in praktyk te ervaar.

“Al bly die landbou onder geweldige druk, het landbouers steeds genoeg passie vir boerdery om elke aspek van landbou wat die Oesdag bied te verken om mededingend en relevant te bly,” sê Danie Minnaar, voorsitter van die NAMPO Oesdag.

Dr. Pieter Taljaard, Graan SA HUB, sê verder dat die onlangse afwesigheid van die NAMPO Oesdag die kritieke rol beklemtoon wat hierdie platform speel om netwerkvorming in die landbousektor te fasiliteer: “Om regeringsverteenwoordigers en belanghebbendes uit die landbouwaardeketting te huisves, bied geleentheid vir belangrike en soms uitdagende gesprekke wat moet plaasvind in 'n omgewing wat bevorderlik is vir, en gemik is op, die uitbou van die sektor plaaslik en regdeur die Sub-Sahara-streek.”

OFM sien uit daarna om met die hoogs bekwame NAMPO Oesdagspan saam te werk en kan nie wag om hul aanbod met ons lojale luisteraars te deel nie.

OFM, the sound of Grain SA’s NAMPO Harvest Day 2022

OFM is once again proud to partner with Grain SA’s NAMPO Harvest Day, the biggest agricultural show in the Southern Hemisphere.

This landmark event on the Central South African calendar will be presented outside Bothaville in the Free State from 16 to 20 May 2022, after a two-year hiatus due to Covid-19 regulations. It will also be the first time that this showcase will be presented over five days.

OFM is not only the official media partner to the event, but also plans an array of activities during NAMPO Harvest Day 2022.

These include: live broadcasts from NAMPO Park of OFM’s Mid-Morning Magic and At Lunch shows, Monday to Friday, with a dedicated Agri Hour 11:00 – 12:00; dedicated traffic updates throughout the day to ensure listeners travel safely to and from the event; and special Pop Up Radio activations at selected exhibitors.

OFM has also created special advertising packages to assist exhibitors and agricultural stakeholders to tap into the prime marketing opportunities NAMPO Harvest Day 2022 presents.

“Whether you can be at this year's NAMPO Harvest Day or not, OFM radio advertising will make sure our listeners are informed about all the latest trends and products from the exhibitors. We are excited for some semblance of normalcy again and to support the agri sector. ‘Boer dat dit bars!’ ” says Anchen Lintvelt, OFM Sales Manager, who can be contacted with queries at anchen@ofm.co.za.

According to the organisers, agricultural producers and the public can once again experience first-hand what modern agriculture looks like. Regarded as the heartbeat of agriculture in South Africa, the 54th NAMPO Harvest Day offers a unique platform through which producers can expand knowledge and explore new technology and productivity solutions. Furthermore, NAMPO does not only present an opportunity for conversation and dialogue, but it also allows the public and other roleplayers to experience commercial agriculture, food safety and security in action.

“Even though agriculture remain under immense pressure, agriculturalists still have enough passion for farming to explore every aspect of agriculture that the Harvest Day has to offer in order to remain competitive and relevant,” says Danie Minnaar, chairperson of the NAMPO Harvest Day.

Dr Pieter Taljaard, Grain SA CEO further states that the absence of NAMPO Harvest Day highlighted the critical role this platform plays to facilitate networking in the agricultural sector: “To host government representatives and stakeholders from the agricultural value chain provide opportunity for important and sometimes challenging conversations to take place, in an environment conducive to and aimed at promoting the sector locally and throughout the Sub-Saharan region.”

OFM looks forward to working with the highly competent NAMPO Harvest Day team and cannot wait to share their offering with our loyal listeners.
