1. BACKGROUND1. BACKGROUND

South Africa has a total land surface of 121.9 million hectares of which 13% has potential for use as arable land. 81% of the total land area is used for agriculture where 83% of it is used for grazing.

South Africa is a water hardy country with sporadic rainfall patterns. The landscape has subtropical conditions in the east and dry desert conditions in the west. This provides for different types of agriculture adaptable for the different landscapes. In addition, South Africa uses almost 50% of its water for agriculture.

This strategy seeks to maximise sector activities and harmonise the sector through formulation and implementation of policies that create a conducive environment .

Ilima / Letsema means working together to liberate ourselves from the oppression of poverty, working together to produce food, to build a house and thus provide shelter for the family. Working together to gather firewood for energy, working together to discipline and guide our children as they grow. Working together to defend our freedom and to build this nation.

The ethos of Ilima / Letsema emanate from the fact that a great deal of land that has been handed over to communities and individuals, land in tribal hands and land that has been under cultivation for decades, is now lying fallow or under-utilised. This campaign, with momentum from Operation Gijima (Operation Accelerated Production), serves to encourage our people to use these lands productively.

This campaign centres around the planting season and seeks to promote the spirit of people working together to achieve a number of objectives.

The National Youth Service has been identified as a strategic partner in matters pertaining to youth development in this regard. Drivers for Ilima / Letsema are:

• MAFISA• CASP• Marketing• Mechanisation• AgriBEE• IFSNP• Cooperative Development• Land Care
