A diverse crop of farmers from across the country share complex, layered stories about heritage and land, at times surviving traumas like land dispossession and forced labour and the more current spectre of violent farm crimes. From the small farms to the agri-businesses who feed South Africa against the odds, this book relays the power of land to heal, by telling stories that are often overlooked."--Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Agriculture $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Farmers $z South Africa $v Biography. 650 0 $a Family farms $z South Africa. 650 7 $a Agriculture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00801355 650 7 $a Family farms. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00920335 650 7 $a Farmers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00921321 651 7 $a South Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204616 700 1 $a Louwrens, Kobus, $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317021107.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B4134F80586511EA978CCE3397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
