  • Marketing Constraints Faced by Communal Farmers in Kw Azulu-Na Tal, South Africa: a Case Study of Transaction Costs Maliem Pierr
    MARKETING CONSTRAINTS FACED BY COMMUNAL FARMERS IN KW AZULU-NA TAL, SOUTH AFRICA: A CASE STUDY OF TRANSACTION COSTS By MALIEM PIERRE MA TUNGUL SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS) IN THE SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES AND AGRIBUSINESS F ACUL TY OF SCIENCE AND AGRICULTURE UNIVERSITY OF NATAL PIETERMARITZBURG 2002 The financial assistance received from the NRF Agricultural Policy Research U nit and TOTAL South Africa towards this research is hereby acknowledged. Opinions expressed and conclusions arrived at, are those of the author and not necessarily to be attributed to the sponsors. I hereby certify that, unless specifically indicated to the contrary in the text, this dissertation is the result of my own original work. Maliem Pierre Matungul A Mamie Ursule et Jesse Tavun, je dedie ce travail. ABSTRACT Farmers engaged in small-scale agriculture in Africa generally have limited access to factors of production, credit and information. Empirical studies throughout the African continent have shown the extent to which high transaction costs constrain or prevent access to information and markets, especially for small-scale farmers. Despite these constraints, farmers in two communal areas of KwaZulu-Natal (Impendle and Swayimana) have managed to produce food for both own consumption and marketing. This study draws heavily on the New Institutional Economics, and particularly Transaction Cost Economics, which have demonstrated the important role of transaction costs in constraining economic activity, and of institutions developed to lower these costs. Transaction costs are the costs of exchange, including costs of information, negotiation, monitoring, coordination and enforcement of contracts.

  • Greater Mpofana Bulk Water Supply Scheme
    GREATER MPOFANA BULK WATER SUPPLY SCHEME IMPLEMENTATION READINESS REPORT OCTOBER 2016 PREPARED BY Umgeni Water Telephone N° : 033 341 1203 Fax N° : 033 341 1218 Email Address : [email protected] P O Box 3235 Pietermaritzburg, 3200 310 Burger Street Pietermaritzburg, 3201 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Context This project involves a potable bulk water supply scheme located in the Midlands area of the KwaZulu-Natal province. It is referred to as the Greater Mpofana Bulk Water Supply Scheme (GMBWSS). The Greater Mpofana Region (described in this report as the area from Mooi River to Lidgetton) does not have a reliable water supply. Much of the area relies on boreholes and run of river abstraction. With increasing demands, the future supply is not considered sustainable. Phase 1 of the project is currently under construction and will provide a sustainable bulk water supply to the towns of Mooiriver, Rosetta and Nottingham Road. Phase 2 of the project is in the final feasibility stage and will provide a sustainable bulk water supply to the towns of Lidgetton and Lions River including the rural hinterland surrounding the abovementioned towns in KwaZulu Natal. The Scheme will provide bulk water supply to large areas within the uMgungundlovu WSA boundary and will include the rural areas of Bruntville, Lidgetton, Lions River and Msinga. The scheme will also supply economic activities in the areas of Mooiriver, Nottingham Road and Rosetta and will reinforce the supply to these towns. This Implementation Readiness Report (IRS) for the GMBWSS is a prerequisite for RBIG funding so that potable water is made available to both the developing and backlog areas of Mooi River and Rosetta in the Mpofana Local Municipality and Nottingham Road, Mount West, Balgowan and Lidgetton in the uMngeni Local Municipality.
