What is in a name? Many things. Your name is your brand and having a trustworthy name is key to any business. If you sell poor quality cattle and small stock, you will not make any profit in the long run and buyers will spread the word that you are not to be trusted. These are the words of Rudi Slabbert, Farm Manager of Karsten Boergoats in Kanoneiland in our program of 31 March. He tells us more about the management of the animals and how the best animals are selected before an auction.
