Human Department of Health Studies, University of South Africa, Pretoria, Republic of South Africa (Tel: +27 12 429 6290) Abstract This paper investigates the administrative and managerial pattern on the Road to Health Chart (RtHC) among clinics in the Makhado municipality. Retrospective observations of the processes of recordings the nurses performed on the RtHC (ṉ=36) were carried out to collect data. A checklist was used to aid the observations. Furthermore, face-to-face interviews were administered on participant nurses in collaboration with document review. The results of this paper revealed considerable omissions on the administration and management of the RtHC instrument. Crucial information was also incorrectly recorded while some was never recorded at all. Clinic managers should continuously monitor the nurses on the administration and management of the RtHC to ensure quality. Key words: -

Factors Restricting the Use of Tractors by Small-Scale Farmers in Vhembe District, Limpopo Province, South Africa
Factors Restricting the Use of Tractors by Small-Scale Farmers in Vhembe District, Limpopo Province, South Africa 著者 Sikhwari George Pandelani journal or Journal of Developments in Sustainable publication title Agriculture volume 3 number 2 page range 65-73 year 2008 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2241/113021 Journal of Developments in Sustainable Agriculture 3: 65-73 (2008) Factors Restricting the Use of Tractors by Small-Scale Farmers in Vhembe District, Limpopo Province, South Africa George Pandelani Sikhwari Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305-8572, Japan This study was conducted to assess the level of use of tractors in Vhembe district, Limpopo province. Soils in this district are generally fertile and support irrigated and dryland agriculture. Although some farmers own tractors and other farm implements, mainly for hiring out, much land remains unplowed. Owing to lack of operational knowledge, some equipment is not used or is used only during the plowing season, and so runs at a loss. As a result, it is difficult for tractor owners to cover their expenses, since most of the time the tractors sit idle. The aims of this study were to assess the level of use of tractors in Vhembe, to investigate the types of tractors and implements owned by farmers and how they can be fully used, to determine the costs of running tractors, and to propose how tractors and other farm implements can be fully used throughout the year. Fifty owners and operators in Vhembe's four municipalities were interviewed. The available tractors were used for tillage only during the rainy months and sat idle during the dry months. -

International Journal of Business and Social Science Vol. 4 No. 8 [Special Issue – July 2013] Operator Characterization and Acquisition of Sold Items for Tshakhuma and Khumbe Markets of Limpopo Province, South Africa M.C.

Abstract The purpose of the study was to characterize operators of the Tshakhuma and Khumbe markets and to investigate the items sold and sources from which they were acquired. Some 91 operators were interviewed, 67 from Tshakhuma and 24 from Khumbe Market. Majority (91.2%) of operators was female and 77% of them were 21 to 60 years old. Some 22% of the operators had no schooling, 25.3% had primary, 44% had secondary and 8.8% had tertiary education. Operator incomes were low as evident from budget spending on basic necessities only. Half (49.5%) of operators were married, 31.9% were single, 3.3% were divorced while 15.4% were widowed. Agricultural produce constituted the main items sold in the markets, and those were mostly fruits, vegetables and field crops. Fruits were acquired from commercial farmers while vegetables and field crops were from own households and local smallholder farmers. Key Words: Market, operator, smallholder farmer, Tshakhuma, Khumbe 1. Introduction Though agriculture has been identified as one of the three pillars of economic development in Limpopo Province, small-scale emerging farmers have great challenges in participating in product markets (Nesamvuni et al., 2003). -

2.3.1 South Africa Land Border Crossing of Beitbridge (Zimbabwe)
2.3.1 South Africa Land Border Crossing of Beitbridge (Zimbabwe) Overview South African border post complex Zimbabwean border post complex Daily Capacity Customs Clearance Other Relevant Information Overview Beitbridge border post (north beyond the town of Musina) in Limpopo province on the South African side is a high priority border post and the main gateway on the north-south trade corridor within the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The actual international border crossing is via the Beitbridge structure over the Limpopo river. On the South African side the main route is via the N1 roadway, at the border post facility routes dovetails for processing by authorities to accommodate cars, buses, pedestrians and trucks.

Evaluation of Crop Production Practices by Farmers in Tshakhuma, Tshiombo and Rabali Areas in Limpopo Province of South Africa
Journal of Agricultural Science; Vol. 6, No. 8; 2014 ISSN 1916-9752 E-ISSN 1916-9760 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Evaluation of Crop Production Practices by Farmers in Tshakhuma, Tshiombo and Rabali Areas in Limpopo Province of South Africa Sylvester Mpandeli1,2 1 University of Venda, School of Environmental Sciences, Department of Geography and Geo-Information Sciences, Thohoyandou, South Africa 2 Water Research Commission of South Africa, South Africa Correspondence: Sylvester Mpandeli, Water Research Commission, Private Bag X 03, Gezina, South Africa. E-mail: [email protected] Received: April 25, 2014 Accepted: May 6, 2014 Online Published: July 15, 2014 doi:10.5539/jas.v6n8p10 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/jas.v6n8p10 Abstract Limpopo Province is characterised by high climatic variability. This is a serious problem in Limpopo Province considering the fact that the province is in a semi-arid area with low, unreliable rainfall. The rainfall distribution pattern, for example, in the Vhembe district is characterised by wet and dry periods depending on the geographical location. In the Vhembe district high rainfall is usually experienced in the Tshakhuma and Levubu areas. Most of the rainfall received in the Vhembe district is in the form of thunderstorms and showers, and this makes rainfall in the district vary considerably. The impact of lower rainfall has negative effects on the agricultural sector, low rainfall resulting in decreases in agricultural activities, loss of livestock, shortage of drinking water, low yields and shortage of seeds for subsequent cultivation. For example, farmers in Rabali area are supposed to use hybrid seeds due to lack of sufficient irrigation water and also poor rainfall distribution compared to farmers in areas such as Tshakhuma and Tshiombo areas.
