Mashare Berries Farm in the Kavango East Region is expected to create more employment, following the expansion of its production with 40 more hectares.

For the past four years, the farm has been operating on 20 hectares piece of land.

The farm Project Manager Izak Grobbelaar says the farm expanded due to the demand for blueberries on the international market.

"We expanded from 20 hectares up to 60 hectares, so yes we are seeing positive trends on the farm, we are still in the process of trying to expand up to 200 hectares."
