I'm Sanelisiwe Mzobe, 24 years of age. I'm from Greytown. I'm currently registered as a second year student in Masters (Plant Breeding) and doing an internship at Limagrain (Link Seed). I completed my bachelor's degree in 2014 at University of KwaZulu-Natal (PMB) and I got the privilege to do masters the following year (2015).

I'm researching about maize, looking at early maturity. The reason for breeding early maturing maize is drought. This type of maize will have the ability to escape drought and by that maize production will be sustained to the maximum, since it a stable food for more than 1.2 billion people in SA and it used for a lot of other things in the world.
