Without water, we have no food.

The Department of Water and Sanitation has deemed it
appropriate to now link racial quotas to water licenses.
The proposed amendments stipulate that water licenses will only be granted as follows:
 
Water consumption up to 500 000m³ and farms up to 500ha – 25% black shareholders

Water consumption up to 1 000 000m³ and farms up to 1 000ha – 50% black shareholders

Water consumption exceeding 1 000 000m³ and farms larger than 1 000ha – 75% black shareholders

Commercial farmers - our members - provide food to approximately 70% of South Africa. Without water, there is no agriculture. Without agriculture, there is no food.
