The annual Meatco National Braai will be held under the auspices of National Agriculture Union (NAU) this year, following consultations between the two parties. A decision was made to hand the popular event back to the NAU, with the union as main sponsor and organiser.

The competition initially began as the Inter Farmers’ Association Braai Competition in the early 1990s. Therefore, this decision means the competition now returns to its initiator and original organiser.

As Meatco, it is our wish that the competition will allow for producers belonging to the crop, livestock, plant and animal health industry, to not be excluded. All producers who are part of organised agriculture should benefit from the competition and use the platform as a social networking opportunity to learn from one another.

Through the years the competition has grown in leaps and bounds, giving Farmers Associations the opportunity to network and keep abreast with what is happening in the industry. We are confident that the NAU will deliver the same quality of competition to its affiliates.

This year’s NAU National Braai will be announce by the new organisers in due course.

The National Braai Competition has always been one of Meatco’s biggest initiatives.
