Recasting the Jobs Debate in South Africa’s Agricultural Sector

South Africa is currently facing an exceptionally high level of unemployment, currently estimated at 32.1%. The reasons this persistently high and increasing level of joblessness are many, and in some ways, quite complex. One of the main reasons has been the pedestrian growth of the economy, which has not provided sufficient space to absorb the growing economically active population into gainful employment. The strategic focus of government has been to promote growth in labour-absorbing industries such as agriculture.
