White former commercial farmers, whose land was compulsorily acquired during the fast-track resettlement programme, have expressed worry about the new payment terms offered by the government.
Last month, the Government proposed new payment terms to compensate the farmers for improvements made on the farms before they were seized at the turn of the Millenium for re-distribution.
Commercial Farmers Union (CFU) president Andrew Pascoe last week said the proposed new payment terms are “completely” different from schedules outlined in the initial deal, also known as the Global Compensation Deed signed in 2020.
Under the original agreement, the farmers were to receive a total of US$3.5 billion between 2020 and 2024.
Half the money had to be paid during the first year, followed by four US$437.5 million annual instalments.
The Government, however, failed to fulfil its obligation. Said Pascoe:
<blockquote>
We have engaged our financial and legal advisors and our biggest worry is that the compensation was going to be much faster than the new terms.
We have proposed some safeguards, which we want to be included in new payment terms; we are waiting for a response from the Government so that discussions can start.
But the major issue is that we want to see if the Government can provide additional safeguards.
</blockquote>
Pascoe did not disclose the finer details citing confidentiality and protocol issues.
Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube said in the 2023 Budget Statement in November last year the Government was still on course to raise the funds.
He said US dollar Treasury bonds would be issued this year to raise US$3.15 billion. | <a href="https://www.businessweekly.co.zw/govt-white-farmers-head-for-showdown/">Business Weekly</a>

Govt, White Former Farmers On Collision Course

President Emmerson Mnangagwa has hailed the US$3.5 billion compensation agreement signed between the government and the Commercial Farmers Union at his State House offices in Harare this Wednesday.
President Mnangagwa said the agreement re-affirms the irreversibility of the land reform programme and is a symbol of Zimbabwe’s commitment to the rule of law and property rights. He said in a statement:
<blockquote>Today we signed a historic compensation agreement with the Commercial Farmers Union, bringing closure and a new beginning to land discourse in Zimbabwe.
The agreement re-affirms the irreversibility of land and is as a symbol of our commitment to the rule of law and property rights.
It is a testimony to the fact that as fellow Zimbabweans, we can peacefully resolve our differences. We cannot change the past, we can only learn from it.
Let us build on the trust demonstrated today, let us choose dialogue over confrontation and let us move forward together.</blockquote>
Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube and acting Agriculture Minister Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri signed the deal on behalf of the government, while farmers unions and a foreign consortium that undertook valuations also penned the agreement.
However, Zimbabwe does not have the money and will issue long term bonds and jointly approach international donors with the farmers to raise funding, according to the compensation agreement.

ED Hails US$3.5 Billion Compensation Deal With White Farmers

The Zimbabwe government has begun paying white former commercial farmers compensation for land redistributed by force during the country’s “Third Chimurenga” land reform. Bloomberg writes that some received RTGS $55,000 as part of the compensation on Friday 21 June 2019 and that more money would be paid to more.
Wrote the publication:
<blockquote>Twenty-eight farmers received payments of RTGS$55,000 ($8,748) each on Friday, Ben Gilpin, director of the Commercial Farmers Union, said by phone from the capital, Harare. More of them will receive payments tomorrow, he said.
Zimbabwe’s government in 2000 seized farms belonging to mostly white commercial farmers and replaced them with black farmers, saying the move was meant to redress colonial imbalances. The southern African country has budgeted RTGS$53 million ($8.4 million) this year for compensation.
Last month, 737 farmers registered for the compensation, according to the Treasury.</blockquote>
In April 2019, the government <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2019/04/07/full-text-government-update-on-compensation-of-white-farmers-land-reform/">announced that it would start paying the white former commercial farmers</a> for improvements on land that had been expropriated.
President<a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2019/04/12/mnangagwa-vows-to-proceed-with-compensation-of-white-farmers/"> Mnangagwa defended the move stating</a>:
<blockquote>In agriculture, the land reform is irreversible and Section 72 of the Constitution is very clear in this regard.
However, the same Constitution provides that no compensation is payable in respect of its acquisition, except for improvements effected on the land before its acquisition</blockquote>

Zimbabwe Begins Paying White Former Commercials Farmers For Land Reform. RTGS $55,000 Each

Some of the white former commercial farmers who were displaced from their farms at the height of the Fast Track Land Resettlement Programme around the year 2000 are now languishing in poverty, some now living in South Africa. The former farmers want the government to pay them compensation as most of them have now become sicker and older. Ben Gilpin, director of the Commercial Farmers Union, told a South African publication,  Sunday Times that
<blockquote>The average age of farmers at the peak of land reform was around 55. Now the vast majority are over 70 and many are unable to work. Thus the need for settlement is very real. Sadly, many have died without [a] settlement and others are facing extreme hardship.
We do want compensation for our losses, but not under the current very poor terms that they are offering. This has been paid over time and is only worth a fraction of what it should be.</blockquote>

White Former Farmers Pleads With Govt To Compensate Them For Repossessed Land

The Commercial Farmers Union (CFU) which is predominantly made up of white farmers has pledged to work with and to support the government of President Emmerson Mnangagwa. CFU President Peter Van Zyl said,
<blockquote>We want to be part of the new Zimbabwe and we want to assist in a process that creates space for all who want to be involved in agriculture and that simultaneously sees all resettled farmers transitioning from being dependent on the State, to being the pillars of the country’s recovery through a transfer of skills.</blockquote>
Lands, Agriculture, Rural Resettlement, Water and Climate Minister Perrance Shiri has indicated that the government is committed to correcting past injustices although he stressed that the land reform programme is a closed chapter.
Said Shiri,
<blockquote>Our Government is firmly committed to a process of the need for corrective measures to deal with the consequences of past injustices. But it is equally important that new injustices are not created or production capacity disrupted. Our policy acknowledges the property rights of existing landowners. It also recognises the legitimate demand for justice from those who have been dispossessed or excluded. In addressing these matters, organised agriculture should seek to be part of the process of change, with the aim of sharing in the creation of a more just dispensation.</blockquote>

Commercial Farmers Union Says White Farmers Are Willing To Work With Govt

The Commercial Farmers Union of Zimbabwe (CFU) has called on the government to give preference to local farmers ahead of those from South Africa who want to exploit opportunities in Agriculture. The Mnangagwa government has urged white farmers to apply for 99-year leases saying that there will be no discrimination in the distribution of land.  Said the CFU
<blockquote>We know that there are people in South Africa who want to come across the border and there are people who are even claiming to be agents saying we will find agriculture opportunities in Zimbabwe. We would, as a union, discourage that because of the basis that we want our farmers to be given opportunities.
The problem these investments need money and money is not available locally. There will be interest from outsiders and we hope that in due course there will be necessary measures that will be in place.
I think what was expressed by the President was a need for national healing and we look for that process too. We would rather see a Zimbabwe that heals than one that continues to suffer from the hurts of the past.</blockquote>

Commercial Farmers Union Urges Govt Not To Prioritise SA Farmers Ahead of Locals

Peter Steyl, president of Zimbabwe’s Commercial Farmers Union, has urged his counterparts in South Africa to give in a little and share the land with the majority black people, most of whom are landless. Steyl said that this was necessary in order to avoid losing all their land like what happened to most white farmers in Zimbabwe.
In an interview with Reuters, Steyl said:
<blockquote>We were arrogant. We thought they would never take the land because we were too important for the economy.
You never think it will happen until people turn up at your door armed with machetes, off their heads. It gets pretty real.
They are facing the same situation in South Africa. I would tell them: ‘it’s better to give a little bit now than lose everything when things go too far’.

Zim Farmers union leader warns S.A farmers to share land with blacks or risk losing it all

The Commercial Farmers Union (CFU) has denied claims that former white farmers were paid $134 million in compensation by the government last year as claimed by Minister of Finance Patrick Chinamasa in the Budget Review. The CFU said that it was unaware of any payments, saying the only compensation it was aware of was made to Interfresh, which lost farms in the Mazowe area.
Ben Gilpin, acting director at Commercial Farmers Union of Zimbabwe (CFUZ) said:
<blockquote>We haven’t seen or heard of those payments from people whom we have been in contact with. We would need to check where those payments have gone.</blockquote>
Another farmer said:
<blockquote>This is most definitely not the case, Where he is coming from I have no idea.</blockquote>
Another official from the CFU said:
<blockquote>We got to hear that Interfresh was paid in the region of $44 million, but that was a while ago,
We have done some quick checks and it does not seem to be true that such an amount ($134 million) was paid last year.</blockquote>
