Farm Attacks

He's just trying to be a half troll, but clearly lacks knowledge of anything agricultural. His tribe depends on much cleansing of ground, throwing of bones and prayers to dead people. I wouldn't hire him to weed my veggie garden, leave alone engage him in debate on it.

Last I saw, "your tribe" also gathered to speak to cloud man to ask for water :p


Cape Town - Evangelist Angus Buchan delivered a powerful message during a day of prayer in Mitchells Plain in Cape Town, where tens of thousands of people gathered on Saturday to pray for, among other things, rain.

This article was 2018, but I saw a few of them growing up as I was invited to attend. Just seems weird to mock somebody's "tribal" superstition when they may not even hold those views themselves.

Condemn him on every other point, but to bring up superstition seems pointless.

Not at all, i think it's just as silly as throwing bones.

There's a lot of things I think silly. But unless it actually harms innocent people, there is no reason to continuously dis it.

Also here: For everything there are exceptions, one swallow does not make a spring.

South Africa 101.

Even a blind witou using a Braille keyboard was not safe at a government department. His sidekick used his new stepping stone position to rapidly put manager on his CV and left for the private sector. Two years later the new IT manager did not even know what a backup was or how to do it. That's how ridiculous it had become. Then we have "Please ma'm, protect me from yourself".

In the agricultural sector same thing ...


Oops, sorry, wrong video. Here ...


But oom Paddatjie get's upset if oom Koos and likes starts their own college.

17 December 2020 Official goverment website

The main focus of the revitalisation program is centred around the upgrading of water source and irrigation infrastructure, re-establishment of the orchards, a modern technology packhouse and upgrading of electricity reticulation infrastructure.


The revitalisation is expected to increase the yields from 30 to more than 66 tons per hectare. Although the total hectares planted will reduce slightly to give way for macadamia nuts development for diversification purposes, the tonnage produced will be more than double.


Export cartons will increase from just more than 700 000 to more than 2 million. Revenue will grow with 13% per annum and profit per hectare will grow by 35% per annum between 2021 and 2034. It is estimated that additional 500 jobs would be created.

Who can actually give those figures on trees at the end of their lifespan? These figures dont even make sense, imagine a large operation like that, thinking that yield will double overnight, with the same people, same machinery, same people, same people, just like that. Its real joke... Imagine been in the boardroom as their bankers, investors or debtors and been presented with over 100% growth overnight sales pitch, that person looking at you straight in the eye.

Alright so the things didnt work out exactly according to plan so I guess plan will be firewood sales. Those farms are finished, best we all move on.

But there were probably tenders for that with money being paid.

So - job done.
