1683 Genade Boerdery Pivot EIA

Genade Boerdery (Pty) Ltd wishes to create 8 new cultivation (pivot) areas for the cultivation of potatoes. The development of these pivots will occur in phases over the course of 5 years and the crops will be rotated to prevent blight and allow for conservation of the soil. Once the planting cycle for a pivot area is completed, the area will be reseeded with grazing grasses for cattle. Seven of the new cultivation areas will each cover 60 hectares and one will cover 50 hectares, resulting in a total area of ~470 hectares of indigenous vegetation clearance by the end of the five-year period.
