South Africa: Limpopo's farm labourers yet to benefit from land reform

Labourers from the fertile farms of South Africa's northernmost province regularly bring their grievances to a modest office in Musina's Nancefield township, just south of the Zimbabwe border. John Mashaba and Dorah Ncupe, officials in the Legal Advice Centre, listen to workers' accounts - in the hope of eventually mediating solutions with employers. Most labourers tell of abuse by farm owners - from physical violence to illegal evictions. But behind every laborer's dispute is a single issue: land.
