Of what use is being a majority without having buying power?! Do you have to sell to those factories? Why not sell to small traders who sell vegetables? Even those Zimbabweans, Malawians etc being chased out could be potential clients. Why not work with caterers? Surely they must serve fruit desserts at events? Get creative and stop looking towards mlungu for progress/ supervision!
100% agree with your thoughts! I was thinking exactly the same thing before even opening this video. Our people don't even know that we actually have an advantage here. There is absolutely no need to sell to anyone else except to the people directly. In the village where i come from in Mpumalanga, people hardly ever buy beef, goat meat, chicken and eggs from big supermarkets. Red meat comes directly from the village cattle owners so I'm not sure what is the need to try and access markets that do not want your participation. We have strength in numbers but we seem to fail to utilize that wisely. Forget about the wealth redistribution mentality and expecting someone to save us, and start thinking about wealth creation i.e. we start creating our own opportunities from scratch instead of blaming others for our lack of creativity. These kinds of news and complaints are starting to get irritating for real! Lets use our brains people!
@@user-bh8fu9lg8r I know that very well my chief, but I don't think u read my full explanation here! I never said anything about big money, however i was merely trying to point out that we also have the same power to exclude them from the local market only if we knew how to organize. That starts with individuals like u and i making it a point that we prioritize buying from our own before going to big shops. Its not as complicated as u might think u know! The point is that its really pointless to keep complaining about things while we are still the ones supporting their businesses here at home. If u know that they dont want u, what makes u think that will change if u complain?
@@user-bh8fu9lg8r We need to start thinking long term (i.e. generational) instead of thinking about quick or big money today or now. ruclips.net/video/O3RAPgBZ7Oo/видео.html
My bro. is a cattle farmer in North West, Afrikaans farmers think farming just like rugby is an extension of their culture. When Vets come to ur farm, they ar disinterested in ur livestock problem, calling them again is a waste of time. They jealousy guard who comes in. Government is useless in breaking up this monopoly.
Atleast it's not Tribalism like some places on the continent. Remember Tutsi vs Hutu when it comes to Ankole cattle farming. The pot is calling the pot black. Africans in the SAME country, tribal discrimination.
Apartheid government has disadvantaged everyone who was not white in south africa for more than 300 years in education, business, living and social conditions. BEE was there to balance that but the current democratic government is failing in greater proportions on that matter.
@@KhanyisoNtloko Who's responsibility do you think is it to 'create' a market? Regarding funding, SEEDING funding for many small operations should be made, then next year only those that are still financially viable should get small commercial loans, those being successfull should be supported commercially on softer terms (lower level interest rate, lower own capital, lower surety requirements). Then those who make a success up to that point, go to full commercial operations. Those that get to the last step will be very few but will be quality businesses. That is what the country needs, urgently! We have a saying in Afrikaans, - how to become a millionare farmer? Start with many millions! Farming is one of the most complex business operations in South Africa with some of the lowest return on investment available.
That is how all industries work. If I started producing clothing, I can't automatically expect a spot the on racks of Pep or Mr. Price like I'm owed it. Farming is no different.
Very hard when one has to go up against perceptions , allways there lurking in the darkest corners and murky waters,Levelling any competitive field when theres money at stake people go nasty, very sad but its how it goes down ,to overcome these hindering issues one has to take risks and have trust in others, very difficult to resolve ,as it morphs into something else, people suffer its so unnecessary
It's called the system, if u dont fight it, the status core remain. Centuries of political n economic violence is not going vanish overnight. The ANC has normalized centuries of economic violence vs Africans. Black people are very ice n easily forgiving even @ their expensive. It will NEVER happen in any part of the world. They are unapologetic about what belongs to them.
Earth is the battle ground. Be nice @ ur own peril. All people in the world wouldn't ACCEPT this treatment esp. on their land. 30 yrs of being pacified with this Rainbow nation BS. What makes the rainbow beautiful is that All colour's shines bright.
Don’t worry Mr Steenhuizen will help all farmers, it was because there was not a minister for Agriculture only in the past. Agriculture had to share a minister with fisheries. Just make sure your product can compete with the best in SA. The best way out of racism is to be excellent in what you do and produce, so that people want your service or product.
So trust the enemy, when are u gonna learn darkie. Self preservation is the basic laws of nature. Steenhuisen = Afrikaaner farmers, he is not going to take away that advantage vs his PEOPLE. Read police's of DA.
@Cyp372 open market if buyer not buying your product.. nothing you can do .This is not bee whereby one can force the white consumer to buy your product..
Whites were given free land by the apartheid government, they were given money as reparations for boer Anglo war by the British, they enjoyed free labor and got market monopolies. You are a stupid fool who doesn't deserve to be part of this country 🧐😡
Don't give up, you are changing things in farming. Nothing will stop this company.
A solid, feasible land reform policy will solve this problem.

Sadly the whites have all the infrastructure and money in this country, they even control the PIC and all the banks, ANC sold out ka 94😂😅

This is one of the reasons why we need to take control of our economy from these settlers
Lol it's been 30 years and look what blks have done to our country 😂😂 useless at best
Decry Racial Discrimination In Their Owns Motherland.. Foreigners Is Not Your Problem..
BEE and AA is racial discrimination.
you are part of the problem, and please go home and fix your countries

This settlers are a real issue im this country!!!
Lol yes settlers create jobs , no jobs in South Africa whites are leaving

@@KagontleToto Whatever.
They're still race based laws.
We are in ths mess because of ANC... The imbalance will never stop under ANC I'm telling u
Anc card again? This is just racial discrimination, simple
The best farming land in South Africa by far is in the traditional black areas.
Why aint it a commercial success?
@@dienar3717 no access to markets and funding

@@dienar3717 the Johannesburg and the Tshwane fresh produce markets are state owned but boer controlled 🤣😂💯please do your research.
That is how all industries work. If I started producing clothing, I can't automatically expect a spot the on racks of Pep or Mr. Price like I'm owed it. Farming is no different.
Government sold the value chain for grain, citrus and other agro related to private hands . Well done ANC for doing just that.
What is the ANC doing about this mess?
Nothing
ANC is the mess
Steenhuizen is in charge now.
The ANC has protected white people more than the DA has, the ANC is a white protector pretending to be a black liberator 😂😅😂😅
Wat does the minister of agriculture going to do about it the question u should ask ....
Even in Mpumalanga, it happens.
Can’t you sell markets that are not racist? supermarkets, ekasi and the like?
All markets are white controlled, even the Tshwane market which is owned by the government is white controlled, the ANC sold out ka 94 my brother. 😂😅😂
City deep Jozi white controlled, fruits from Limpopo comes to city deep then back to Limpopo. Authority is busy stealing instead of doing their work
Its the value chain not sell by one by one.
this must stop really.

How do you know? We have same experience with soya bean farmers in Mpumalanga
Only SABC news will publish such garbage
Y u saying it is garbage
Moan moan moan. Forever struggling instead of doing.
