CHALLENGES FOR LAND REFORM • Escalating land prices on average between 14% and 19% in the past 10 years will have a big impact on the budget • Lack of specialized skills required in the sector to drive massification programme • Poor level of alignment in the agrarian reform sector (public and private) • Willing buyer-willing seller – the state becomes the only buyer in the market and that affects its bargaining power.
INTERVENTIONS • Pro-active land acquisition strategy • ASGI-SA: Bio-fuels strategy • The approach of Area-based planning will contribute to the massification programme • New land delivery models currently being developed e.g. special purpose vehicle, agency agreements and developer models • Decentralization framework for fast tracking state land management and administration • Completed Business re-engineering processes to re-position the department to fast track delivery
