A combination of pressures has put these farmers – once a primary political constituency of the National Party apartheid government – into new difficulties, both objective and 3 subjective. The new pressures have been well documented and arise from the dismantling of an elaborate architecture of policy and institutional support for commercial farming:agricultural deregulation including the removal of direct and indirect subsidies, state-controlled marketing boards with floor prices and pan-territorial pricing, cheap credit and tax breaks; the rapid liberalisation of trade in agricultural products; and sharp increases in the prices of key farming inputs, particularly diesel and electricity (Bernstein 1996, Vink and Hall 2010, Williams et al. 1998). Further pressures adding to the actual and perceived difficulties of pursuing commercial farming include the introduction of basic labour rights for farm workers in the 1990s, and since then also minimum wage regulations ,the extension of tenure rights to farm workers and their families (Atkinson 2007) and the placing of historical land claims to large areas of commercial farmland by blacks, owners and tenants, in terms of the Restitution of Land Rights Act, 22 of 1994 (Walker et al. 2010).
