WATCH | Power cuts affecting emerging farmers

JOHANNESBURG - Emerging farmers say rolling blackouts are destroying the industry's growth.  

Deputy President, Paul Mashatile, has been visiting and engaging with small-scale farmers in KwaZulu-Natal.

He discussed government initiatives and programmes that will provide support to the sector.

Farmers say they are losing money and the only way government can help is to put a stop to rolling blackouts.
