Daar kan verwag word dat aktuele onderwerpe tans ter sprake die vonke gaan laat spat op die Jaarkongres van Vrystaat Landbou wat 3-4 Augustus 2005 by Ilanga Estate in Bloemfontein gehou word.
Die tema van die kongres is die strategiese landbouplan en of dit volhoubaar is of nie. Mnr. Brand Pretorius, hoof uitvoerende beampte van McCarthy Limited, sal as spreker optree.
Vordering met die grondhervormings program in die Vrystaat, wat volgens boere vertraag word deur 'n onwilligheid om by markpryse te hou; die broeiende en sloerende veediefstal-situasie aan die Vrystaat-Lesotho-grens; verontwaardeging in landbougeledere oor die hantering van beoogde grondbelasting deur vier munisipaliteite; Agri BEE, ens.; is van die besprekingspunte wat na verwagting warm debatte gaan ontlok.
Vir die dames, word 'n damesdag met Nataniël as gasspreker beplan. Die tema is: “Die wêreld wat ons miskyk! 'n Lewe van moontlikhede”.
