Holy cow!
R43m has been invested in an Eastern Cape dairy farm since 2014 — and it is able to produce only about 350 litres of milk a day.
This has also led to an East London dairy farm, which had agreed to buy the milk from Mantusini Dairy, terminating its contract because of the low production rate.
This was revealed by DA MPL Retief Odendaal on Tuesday, based on an official reply to questions about the Mantusini Dairy project in Port St Johns.
The project was established on 373ha of communal land in Mantusini village — 577.8km away from Nelson Mandela Bay.
It was meant to benefit about 500 households under a communal tenure. The households joined their land together to form a single unit for dairy production.
