Home Grown Food For Us All

We are Cultivating Ideas for Growth.

The levels of poverty, unemployment and economic hardship affecting Basotho, particularly the youth, are a matter of grave concern to the nation and to us as a company. Many young Basotho have the qualifications and potential to contribute meaningfully to the economy, yet struggle to find opportunities to build sustainable livelihoods.

At the same time, vast areas of Lesotho's agricultural land remain underutilised, while we continue to import substantial quantities of food from neighbouring South Africa. We believe this presents both a challenge and an opportunity;to increase local food production, reduce reliance on imports and keep more economic value within Lesotho.

At Litsoamobung Fresh Produce, we are committed to playing our part by bringing agricultural land into productive use, creating employment and developing commercially viable farming enterprises. Our ambition is to build a business that creates value for our customers, employees, families and communities, while contributing to a more productive, self-reliant and prosperous Lesotho.

Bringing Land into Sustainable Production.

In many economies around the world, agriculture contributes meaningfully to gross domestic product and plays a significant role in assuring food security. In our case, agricultural production has continued to decline consistently over the years not only because of crop failure, but more importantly because large tracts of land across the country are left to lie fallow due to a number of factors.

This is an unsustainable situation that needs to be reversed as it means that we are becoming increasingly dependent on imports of cereals, vegetables and fruits and on food donations from the international community – this at a time when the number of landless people is also increasing. This concern which has since been reiterated in subsequent budget speeches and other relevant fora underscores the need to utilize the land, one of the most critical resources at our disposal, to turn our fortunes to our favour.

Use of Appropriate Technologies and Practices.

At Litsoamobung Fresh Produce, we combine practical farming experience with modern technologies and good agricultural practices to improve productivity, quality and sustainability. Our farming operation uses drip irrigation and fertigation, borehole water infrastructure, water storage systems, protected growing structures and modern farm machinery to support efficient and consistent production.

We use CIMS (Crop Information Management System) to manage crop and plot identification, harvest records, traceability and mass balance. Each harvest is assigned a unique identification number, allowing produce to be traced from the field through harvesting, packing and delivery. We also use thermal labelling on packaged produce to strengthen product identification and traceability.

We are progressively adopting precision agriculture technologies, including soil and environmental monitoring probes, automated irrigation controls, AI-enabled farm cameras and digital daily farm records. These technologies enable us to make better data-driven decisions, optimise the use of water and agricultural inputs, monitor crops more effectively and reduce post-harvest losses.

Our approach is guided by GLOBALG.A.P. standards, ensuring that technology is combined with responsible agricultural practices, food safety, environmental stewardship and continuous improvement.

Responsible Citizenship

We are committed to responsible citizenship. As a company and as individuals , we believe in the rule of law and respect and submit to the authority of all policies, laws and regulations applicable to us. We are committed to working with the people around us to achieve our objectives. We treasure the buy- in of the communities in which we work because it guarantees the security and longevity of our investments.

As a demonstration of our commitment to our community we provide employment to the families of the owners of the land on which we operate in priority to other community members, but hire all our work force with the exception of the farm manager from the surrounding communities. We source inputs, expertise and other necessities locally to the extent possible.
