. The CRLR has resolved to strategic partnerships for transfer of prime agricultural land to land claimants. In Free State, Mpumalanga and Limpopo, various models of strategic partnerships were being implemented. There were however challenges with regard to payment of rent and sharing of dividends. The case of Mokgoloboto, just outside Tzaneen in Limpopo illustrates the problems of strategic partnerships and contested notions of what strategic partnerships should do. On all the strategic partnership projects visited, outside job creation for beneficiaries, there were no material benefits to households because of lack of sharing of dividends. Farm worker share equity schemes in the Northern Cape failed to empower the farm workers to play an active role in management of farms.
