Spoken like a true Marxist:

"Last week, ANC chairman Gwede Mantashe sparked panic among the farming community when he said: “You shouldn’t own more than 25,000 acres of land.

“Therefore if you own more it should be taken without compensation.""

I give it 5 years at most where South Africa has to start importing food.

But, like the tragedy happening in Venezuela, it's an inconvenient truth that will be ignored, with perhaps feigned surprise at how it hapened.

well, once again a bunch of politicians who can't seen to grasp the basics concepts of the economy, they think these decisions won't end up ousting them in the end.

As a black South African I couldn't agree more with this post! My heart literally breaks from the stupidity of our politicians. Zimbabwe's fate will be ours

Educate me. White farmers know how to grow food, but black farmers don't? I am seriously clueless on this. And I admit it. No shame. Ready to learn.

Black farmers don't have the resources required to manage farms and those can be pretty expensive so what's gonna happen is black farmers won't have the necessary requirements to sustain the farms.. they are pretty huge.. and that will lead them to abandon the farms or use them for subsistence farming and building houses on the land which will lead to a decrease in agricultural input in the overall economy.

For me people just should be reported to their native lands of their ethnicity

You mean deported right?
