As emotive a topic farm murder is, I refuse to be drawn into any conspiracy theories, or arguments with stats. What concerns me more is how they are performed. I feel it is elevated crime due to the difficulty of policing rural areas (+SAPS incompetence). However I feel the level of exaggerated brutality may indicate that these crimes have a seasoning of hate over and above the average (that is when the victim is white). I intend to research it further and present a dedicated video on the subject to support or disprove this notion.

Though only in tongue and cheek I suggest that SA will become a banana republic, in reality this is far from true. I know what many from overseas countries will say that bananas will provide more work in the form of labour as they require many pickers, and that Bananas, Pineapples and Sugar will bring in valuable foreign exchange. Sure, first you must realise:
SA land is very marginal and in many area difficult to farm. Bananas, Pineapples and Sugar are already heavily farmed along the subtropical east coast where as deciduous fruit is farmed in the western cape. Thus there is already a highly developed agricultural trade in SA, one that both provides food and foreign exchange utilising each climate zone to the fullest. Nothing can be gained by opening the markets to consortiums - one can only loose. If any land distribution takes place let's hope it is disused pieces. I agree that small pieces can also be farmed profitably but yield more in products like Mushrooms, Flowers etc... however farming these requires capital and are far from simple.

I find this video inspirational... filmed just about in my back yard.
