Land reform in South Africa

[Ulli]

Great analysis about South african farmes, that are taken away from whites and are now owned by blacks. Most of this farms are steering a course in direction of inability to pay 

50-80 % are producing nothing. Some fell the fruit-trees and sell the wood as firewood

The article discribes that one main problem is the lack of capital to invest by the new black owners 

This is baloney  - because whole tribes own now the land. They can easily replace money in the first time through manpower.

The real problem is that they simply don't know what to plant on what soil and how to distribute the harvest.

They have a lack of knowledge and not of money - and perhaps a lack of righteous working ethic too.
