Ministerial Oversight Visit | Dirang Batswana Greenery: Where Investment Delivers Impact
The Dirang Batswana Greenery Project in Senthumole, Ward 5, stands as a clear example of what consistent support from the National Development Agency can achieve.
Through NDA investment, the project has grown into a productive and sustainable enterprise. It now operates across eight hectares of farmland, has created 30 active jobs with a strong focus on youth and women, and has put in place key infrastructure including irrigation systems, boreholes and cold-room storage. On-site office and kitchen facilities have also been established to support daily operations.
Beyond infrastructure and jobs, the project is strengthening local food security by supplying fresh produce to nearby shops, while equipping beneficiaries with practical skills in agriculture, governance and financial management.
This progress reflects the Department of Social Development portfolio’s commitment to building sustainable livelihoods, creating meaningful employment and supporting community-owned enterprises that deliver real, lasting impact.
