Government Reclaims Unproductive Farm
The Department of Agriculture and Land Affairs has taken over a farm under a controversial new policy of taking back unproductive farms allocated to blacks as part of a land redistribution programme.
The move comes shortly after minister Lulu Xingwana, announced the "use it or lose it" initiative for farms which black beneficiaries have left idle.
An ostrich farm in Hammanskraal was repossessed following demeaning reports regarding the poor conditions of the ostriches.
"I have requested Phaphamang Ma-Africa (cooperative) beneficiaries to relinquish themselves from the lease agreement they have with the Department of Land Affairs," says Xingwana.
