# The University of the Free State’s Enactus Qwaqwa’s groundbreaking project, Root Rescue, will compete at the Enactus World Cup in Thailand in September. The project recently won the Enactus 2025 Early-Stage National Exposition. The university says Root Rescue emerged from a pressing need to address critical challenges in agriculture. These include over-reliance on chemical fertilisers, unsustainable farming practices, inadequate power supply, and water shortages for irrigation. The university says Root Rescue’s success is a demonstration of the collaborative spirit and entrepreneurial drive of the Enactus team.
