6. MOTIVE FOR CASP  South African agriculture is characterised by a stark bimodal agricultural sector – one large and developed (+- 37 000) and one small and resource poor (+- 2 million).  The resource poor is mainly in the former homelands, with poor infrastructure and low education levels.  The resource rich agribusinesses with large, complex systems of management and controls are difficult to access by the resource poor.  The drive is therefore to support and strengthen the small holder farmers (SMME’s) to enter the mainstream of agriculture economy, eradicate hunger and inequality and contribute towards poverty alleviation.

7. MOTIVE FOR CASP  Agricultural sector is critical for the economic development of rural areas and the country as a whole because of its potential to:  Create work, both as a direct employer and through its linkages to other sectors:  Provide the basis for sustainable livelihoods and small business development on a mass scale in rural communities;  Ensure the efficient production of affordable food and other wage goods, assure food security for the poorest and contribute to a climate of low inflation.

8. OVERALL PURPOSE OF CASP  To provide effective agricultural support services and to streamline the provision of services to targeted beneficiaries of land reform’s restitution and redistribution; as well as to other black producers who have acquired land through private means and are engaged in value-adding enterprises domestically, or involved in export.
