dc.description.abstract | In 1996 less than 1% of the population
owned and controlled over 80% of
farm land. This 1% was part of the
10.9% of the population classified as white
(Stats SA 2000). Meanwhile, the 76.7% of
the population that is classified as African
had access to less than 15% of agricultural
land, and even that access was without
clear ownership or legally-recognised
rights. An estimated 5.3 million black
South Africans lived with almost no tenure
security on commercial farms owned by
white farmers (Wildschut & Hulbert 1998).
The legacy of apartheid was not just the
inequality in access to resources such as
land, but a faltering economy that by 1994
had been through two years of negative
growth and left the majority of the
population in poverty (Sparks 2003). | en_US |
