Wernich is the general manager of the farm and also a trustee who farms with his father, Willie, who is the main trustee.<\/p>\n<p>Wernich was named Agri Noordwes Young Farmer of the Year in 2021. \u201cIt is an incredible privilege to be part of a family farm. My children will be the seventh generation on the farm, God willing,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3027\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3027\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3027\" src=\"https:\/\/myagcoafrica.com\/pr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC_0642.jpg\" alt=\"The newly bought Fendt 936 Vario and Fendt 720 Vario Gen 6 at Lemmertrust Boerdery\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3027\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The newly bought Fendt 936 Vario and Fendt 720 Vario Gen 6 at Lemmertrust Boerdery<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Family farming rediscovered<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Over the past seven years that Wernich has been involved on the farm and in farming, they have mechanised a lot and introduced a lot of new technology. They mainly apply crop rotation and have also moved to minimum tillage.<\/p>\n<p>He says: \u201cWe have changed a lot of our cultivation and methods, and adapted them with great success. I also did not just walk into farming and took over everything. I had to know my place and also work myself up within farming. It was very good for me, to give me a new perspective as well. You think a little differently, you also look at things differently.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wernich also says that farming is a business enterprise, and you have to manage it like one.<\/p>\n<p>He shares: \u201cWithin the family farm, each of us knows what is expected of us and what needs to be done. It is important to consider what is best for the farm and the business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wernich\u2019s advice to young farmers involved in farming with their fathers: \u201cYou have to prove yourself. If it is difficult for you to work with your father in a business, try to gain his trust. Go the extra mile. You can only be angry with yourself if he does not give you opportunities or grant you opportunities, because you have not proven yourself yet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The relay baton of family farming<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wernich sums up their family farm as a relay race. \u201cMy grandfather, after whom I am named, expanded the farm to where it is today, and my father and his brother maintained and expanded the farm very well. Everyone gave everything in their time here on the farm to expand the farm, and now it is my turn. I now have the baton in my hand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What stands out for Wernich is that the farm has expanded generically, not too fast or too big. His dream is for the farm to expand further in a sustainable way, and to be able to pass the baton on to his own children one day.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3027\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3027\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3027\" src=\"https:\/\/myagcoafrica.com\/pr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC_0636.jpg\" alt=\"From left Willem Spies from Tradestuff, Wernich Lemmer and Rudi Barnard from Tradestuff\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3027\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">From left Willem Spies from Tradestuff, Wernich Lemmer and Rudi Barnard from Tradestuff<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Lemmertrust and Fendt create a new path<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A farmer\u2019s time and patience are two things that should not be tested. Wernich says: \u201cOur previous combine was in use for thirteen years and in the past year we experienced many problems with it. These were not only small things; they were quite serious damages. After the repeated problems, I mentioned to my father that we would have to consider buying a new combine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of our relatives regularly does business with Tradestuff in Hartbeesfontein. He advised me to go and look at the Fendt combine harvesters distributed by Tradestuff in the area.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRudi Barnard from Tradestuff showed me the Fendt combine harvesters. The extra mile that Tradestuff and Fendt went with us from the beginning was the decisive factor. Tradestuff and Frans Cronj\u00e9 from Fendt came to explain everything about the Fendt combine harvester to me on the farm, and as they say \u2013 the rest is history. We purchased the Fendt Ideal 7 harvester and two Fendt tractors; a Fendt FT 936 and a Fendt FT 720 Gen 6.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After his thorough research, Wernich believes and trusts that the Fendt Ideal harvester can do for the South African harvester market what the Equalizer planter did for the planter market. \u201cFor me, it is the best harvester in the world. It was a dream come true for me when we got the opportunity to take that step.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wernich says that they are also very excited about the upcoming harvest season where the Ideal 7 will be in action on the farm for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou want to harvest as clean as possible with the lowest possible fuel consumption. With tractors, you want to do your work on the fields as well as possible with the lowest possible fuel consumption and that is what the Fendt tractors offer you,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n<p>The Lemmers use the Fendt FT 936 Vario (270 kW) mainly for soil preparation and planting, and the Fendt FT 720 Gen 6 (150 kW) for general farm work and everything in between.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am very impressed with the operation of the tractors; they are very versatile. At the beginning, I had to figure out how it works and get used to all the buttons, but the Fendt team came to show me everything on the farm and taught me everything. After I have mastered everything, I was so shocked by how simple it actually works and how user-friendly the tractors are,\u201d says Wernich.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3027\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3027\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3027\" src=\"https:\/\/myagcoafrica.com\/pr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC_0651.jpg\" alt=\"FendtONE easily combines your work in the office with your activities in the field and digitise your farm.\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3027\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">FendtONE easily combines your work in the office with your activities in the field and digitise your farm.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Fendt at the forefront of innovative technology<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wernich believes that you should always ask yourself: When is technology more or when is it innovative? And he believes that the move to Fendt is certainly innovative technology that will greatly benefit their farming.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The fuel efficiency, the Vario gearbox and the technology in these tractors really stand out to me,&#8221; Wernich confirms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe recently used the FT 936 Vario for soil preparation. We work about 400 to 450 mm deep, and what we could already see, was the deeper action on the fields. Where the soil was too soft or too wet, the tractor easily pulled the ripper through.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe TMS (Tractor Management System) of the tractor makes a very big difference. There are two important aspects that I can highlight about the Fendt tractors that for me put the tractor in a class of its own: Firstly, the TMS system which mainly includes the Vario gearbox, and secondly the automatic suspension system control. In addition, the tractors are also equipped and ready for variable planting or spreading, and section control.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhere we could drive a maximum of 5,4 km per hour during tillage with the competitor tractor, and tilled about 2,5 ha per hour, we now do almost 4 ha per hour at a speed of between 7 and 8 km per hour, and our fuel consumption is now about 2 litres per ha less. At this stage (although we have not yet used the tractor much for tillage) it looks to us as if we shall get a fuel saving between 15 and 20%, including your Ad-Blue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would definitely put these tractors in an A+ class, while I would put the closest competitor in an A- class. We are very much looking forward to the road ahead with Fendt, and also with Tradestuff,\u201d concludes Wernich.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Service, the driving force behind Tradestuff<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rudi Barnard, owner and manager of Tradestuff, believes that happy customers mean a happy business. He says: \u201cThe most important thing is to reach the farmer. If you want to make a difference and impact in today\u2019s agricultural industry, you have to provide service and for that you have to sit down with the customers and farmers to hear exactly what they need to sell the right thing to the customer so that he can do his job easily, efficiently and economically, and not just to make a profit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tradestuff is the proudest Fendt and Massey dealer in the Hartbeesfontein district and provides services from Ottosdal, Hartbeesfontein, Orkney, Stilfontein, Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp to Ventersdorp.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3027\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3027\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3027\" src=\"https:\/\/myagcoafrica.com\/pr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC_0616.jpg\" alt=\"Tradestuff parts store\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3027\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tradestuff parts store<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThere are always challenges, but it is always fun to be part of the agricultural industry!

I am not afraid to provide service to farmers here in the area, because I know I will receive the support of AGCO,\u201d he concludes.<\/p>\n<p>Willem Spies is responsible for Tradestuff\u2019s Fendt marketing and sales.
