Ten spyte van die winterkoue het boere, agente, verskaffers en vennote opgedaag vir die Laeveld Agrochem Gholfdag ten bate van LAC Cares. Deur LAC Cares Connect is fondse ingesamel om Bramley Kinderhuis met Genesis Nutritional Products-maaltye te ondersteun.

Danksy almal se ruim ondersteuning is die teiken oortref en genoeg fondse vir meer as 45 000 maaltye ingesamel. Baie dankie aan elkeen wat saam ’n positiewe verskil gemaak het.
This past weekend, some of the incredible women from Laeveld Agrochem joined thousands of participants at the 2026 SPAR Women's Challenge Tshwane. Each step celebrated women’s strength, determination and the support shared among colleagues.

A special thank you to LAC Cares for providing our ladies with their race packs and helping make this memorable day possible.
Baie dankie aan elke gas, spreker, borg, kunstenaar en vriend wat gehelp het om Son-Safari 2026 ’n onvergeetlike ervaring te maak.

Ons hoop elkeen het die geleentheid geniet, nuwe verhoudings gebou, waardevolle kennis opgedoen en bowenal lekker saam gekuier.
Francois Nel, Laeveld Agrochem's Environmental Health & Safety Manager, joined our Business Manager, Dr. Jeanne de Waal, to present safe-handling training to clients of LAC Rawsonville and LAC Drakenstein.

The sessions focused on the correct handling, storage and application of agrochemicals, as well as practical measures to protect farm workers, producers and the environment.

landbouSAKE is ’n segment van die gewilde televisieprogram ontbytSAKE wat met trots geborg word deur Laeveld Agrochem.

Die segment fokus op gesprekke met landboukundiges, belangrike nuus, tendense en praktiese raad vir boere en ander rolspelers in die landbousektor.

Wat as ’n klein familieonderneming begin het, het oor die jare gegroei deur mense, verhoudings en ’n passie vir landbou.

Ons stigter, Nick Liebenberg, het op die VIA-reeks Koffie en Kapitaal met Theo Vorster oor dié reis en die storie agter Laeveld Agrochem gesels.

'n Nuwe episode elke week!

Vier ’n dekade van inspirasie, innovasie en ongelooflike boerderystories saam met ons.

nisBOERE word aangebied in samewerking met Laeveld Agrochem en JAC Motors SA.

Taking Scout training to the field

We are committed to developing knowledgeable, field-ready scouts who can identify crop challenges with confidence. That’s why Dr Jeanne de Waal and the LAC team have been travelling across the region to provide hands-on training, using our own Laeveld Scout manuals as a practical and accessible guide. By taking learning directly to the farm, we ensure scouts gain the real-world experience they need to make a meaningful impact in the field.

The definitive field guide

The LAEVELD SCOUT™ series is authored by leading crop protection experts with the support of numerous key representatives from the industry. The guides are a must-have item for anybody in the agricultural industry.
