Expropriated Land Stolen Without Compensation Will Be Returned And ANC & EFF Comrades Will Be Held Accountable – Boere Afrikaner People’s Council

Posted on 03/02/2020 Leave a comment

The chairman of the Boer-Afrikaner People’s Council and leader of the HNP, Mr Andries Breytenbach, said in a document to the Parliamentary ad hoc committee involved in amending Article 25 of the South African constitution, in order to expropriate the Citizens’ property, without compensation, said that the expropriation of property without compensation to be a criminal act of theft.

Mr Breytenbach wrote in a sharply worded submission to the Parliamentary Committee that the amendment of Article 25 is immoral, illegitimate and the abuse of power. He says in his submission that the proposed legislation amending Article 25 of the current constitution and any attempt to “legalize” expropriation without compensation, is rejected in its entirety.

The Afrikaner Boer people will not recognize such legislation as legitimate legislation and will, by the any means at their disposal, oppose and defend the theft of their property, and will not acknowledge the ownership or right

Farmers do not take nonsense; scared stock thieves flee to police station after failed stock theft attempt

Posted on 23/12/2019 Leave a comment

Wild chase of thieves ends in Parys police station with a group of farmers briefly on their heels after a failed stock theft attempt.

A farmer and Pastor of the AGM Church in Vredefort Juan Greef became aware on the evening of Friday 20 December 2019 that about 100 sheep were stolen on his farm. Farmers in the vicinity of the S80 road at Vredefort were warned earlier that cattle thieves were planning to loot sheep.

Greef reported the incident to the Vredefort Dome’s community policing forum, after which members blocked off roads in an attempt to find the cattle thieves.

According to Greef, the thieves drove the sheep through 5 farms, but as far as they walked, they lost some of the sheep.

According to Network 24, a suspicious pickup truck was spotted in the area around 4:50 a.m. Saturday, during which farmers ordered the driver to stop. These 19 sheep from Juan Greeff were closed under a tarpaulin on the back of a bakkie. Greeff says some of them a

Farmer Cyril is also affected by poor economic conditions – 22 of his 46 workers are laid off

Posted on 28/11/2019 Leave a comment

SA’s poor economic situation led to Pres. Cyril Ramaphosa also caught up with, like many other farmers in the country and is now forced to retrench some of his workers.

Ramaphosa, who farms with Ankole cattle on his farm Ntaba Nyoni Estate near Badplaas in Mpumalanga, is the largest ankole breeder in SA as well as chairman of the Ankole Cattle Society. The cattle are specially imported from Uganda and are especially sought after for their graceful long horns. The president also breeds with boran cattle, a Kenyan beef breed, and bonsmaras.

Ben Molotsi, the farm’s operations manager, confirmed on Wednesday that a clean business decision after Rampahosa laid off 22 of its 46 workers. He says Ramaphosa visited the farm last month and himself conveyed the message of the retrenchments to the workers. Molotsi said the retrenchment packages include financial aid to attend skills development courses.

Earlier this year, Ntaba Nyoni employees bought a boran stud bull for

Commercial livestock farmers are being harmed by narrow-mindedness of poor foot-and-mouth control in the Northern Transvaal

Posted on 08/11/2019 Leave a comment

Early in February this year it was announced that foot-and-mouth disease had broken out in the black living area of the Northern Transvaal.

The farm where the first incident was reported is in the Vhembe district and has resulted in South Africa’s export of red meat being hampered.

While the industry is still struggling to recover from the setback, foot-and-mouth disease has broken out again in the Vhembe district, and will mean that farmers will be restrained from selling their market-ready animals.

Farmers have begun to specialize in recent years by marketing animals literally on day and date when the finishing work is completed, and every day that the animals stay longer on the farm is a direct loss that is offset against the profit.

With the intolerance of poor foot-and-mouth control in the Northern Transvaal, it is becoming increasingly urgent that commercial cattle farmers be protected from the annoyance.

Drought relief for Northern Cape – ANC-regime promises to assist farmers with R30m in aid– this is like a drop in the ocean

Posted on 09/10/2019 Leave a comment

The R30m pledge to assist farmers in the severe drought of the Northern Cape is hardly a drop in the ocean.

David Mabuza indicated that he may be visiting the drought-stricken Northern Cape to determine for himself the extent of the drought and the conditions in which the farmers find themselves.

The Department is guilty of having spent considerable time in the agricultural sector, and Mabuza owes the farmer an explanation, one of the farmers said.

Meanwhile, he promised drought relief in the form of animal feed to the area’s farmers, but farmers remained skeptical of the promise.

Farmers in SA are left on their own to fight against forces of nature, only fellow farmers have sympathy

Posted on 17/09/2019 Leave a comment

Droughts, floods, plagues, high input costs, unfair competition, theft and farm attacks are just some of the many problems food producers face in the country.

Along with that is an unfriendly government that just doesn’t realize that food cultivation is more important than any other industry in the country.

As if all this is no more than enough, the ground-breaking policy there is to cause uncertainty, unacceptable labor laws, are all part of the farmer’s troubles that cause nights’ waking.

It is mainly co-farmers from another region of the country who hear and understand the cry of other producers, and then offer a helping hand.

Dairy farmers are discouraged by the authority that could allow dairy to be imported from Poland, and frustration is building up as farmers sit in large parts of the country and perish under the worst conceivable drought conditions while the government prefers to look the other way.

Food production and delivery compromised – Farmers increasingly cautious in current economic climate as well as uncertain about future due to ANC land grab program

Posted on 26/08/2019 Leave a comment

The current financial climate is one of the important factors that make farmers more cautious when purchasing expensive tractors and farm implements.

In addition, the government’s land grab program, which is at the very top of the long list of uncertainties, is the biggest reason for farmers not to incur big spending.

The rand, which has become more unstable in recent months, makes farmers even more cautious as it contributes to drastic price increases on imported tractors and harvesters.

All this, together with the possibility that crop yields are not going to be as desired, are all factors that make farmers reluctant to make new purchases.

Concerns have been expressed that the uncertain conditions could have a serious and detrimental effect on food production and delivery and could even lead to larger imports of food that would not be of the same high quality as locally grown.

There’s a false perception by some ignorant black South Africans that farm workers alone are actually the brains behind farming success

Posted on 10/08/2019 Leave a comment

Please note the attached article – many Zimbabweans were gainfully employed as workers in the 1970’s —their efforts were well received, highly productive, and mutually beneficial to the country’s agricultural success…and all parties were aptly recognized for this esteemed ranking back in 1975.

If black Zimbabweans workers were the brains, why then did these black Zimbabweans abandon their country and the land they loved? Why did they choose not to use their farming knowledge and techniques? Why did they choose to turn Zimbabwe into a dust bowl, and result in the extreme suffering of millions? The answer is that clearly black Zimbabwean farm workers lacked the knowledge, the tools, resources and infrastructure to build their own massive agricultural business. Even if they had the knowledge, Robert Mugabe didn’t want his ‘people’ thriving – he wanted everyone weak and reliant on him…which explains the worlds outrage at Mugabe

ANC uses army to act against gangs, but silent on the slaughter of farmers – 60 farm murders and 217 farm attacks in firs half of 2019

Posted on 10/08/2019 Leave a comment

With every passing day that the ANC’s wishes to deny that farm attacks and murders are a reality, farmers will continue to be murdered. The murder of Sakkie and Ina van der Berg on their farm in the Boshoff, Dealesville district this past weekend has been proven that farm murders in South Africa are out of control.

According to the Transvaal Agricultural Union (TAU) figures, there were over 60 farm murders and 217 farm attacks only in the first half of 2019.

Neither President, Cyril Ramaphosa, nor the Free State Prime Minister, Sisi Ntombela, wanted to acknowledge in their recent state and provincial opening address that the government’s lack of rural security poses a threat to farmers’ safety and food security.

The ANC focuses on gang violence and deploys the army to defuse it, but ignores farmers’ plea to also secure their security. The ANC prefers to focus on the past and create the perception that farmers are crooks who have stolen l
