4 Challenges in the Sector  Food price volatility, and anti-competitive behaviour impacts on national food security  Inadequate extension services especially in Forestry and Fisheries  Interdependency on Intergovernmental coordination  No guaranteed market for products produced by small holders  The slow progress in terms of increasing production efficiency

5 Challenges in the Sector cont…  Profitability has increased, but at slower rates, and is attributed to a concentrated few that have been able to survive global market and financial challenges  Transformation in all three sectors (Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries) remains a challenge in differences in interpretation, and implementation  Inadequate monitoring and enforcement in the sustainable use of natural resources

6 Policy and programme interventions  Government adoption of the 12 Key Outcomes by the January 2010 Cabinet Lekgotla  Signing of Performance Agreements and Delivery Agreements with DAFF directly contributes to the following 2 Outcomes with clear targets:  Outcome (7): Vibrant, equitable, sustainable rural communities contributing towards food security for all  Outcome (10): Protect and enhance our environmental assets and natural resources  IPAP 2  New Growth Path  National Planning Commission vision 2030

7 Programme interventions: development targets  Increase the number of smallholder farmers from to by 2014  As a result of the continued success of commercial farming, the number of employees on commercial farms should rise from to by 2014  Aim to place households in smallholder schemes by 2015 (goat, sheep, wheat, aquaculture, forestry, etc.)  jobs in agro-processing by 2020  jobs Community Works Programme Plan by 2014  Rehabilitation of 3.2 m hectares of agricultural land by 2014  Recovery of targeted fish stocks (abalone, hake and West Coast Rock Lobster) by 10% by 2014
