ABOUT US

The Directorate BBBEE Charters Compliance seeks to facilitate Broad–Based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) in the Agricultural Sector; Forest Sector and the Fisheries Sector by facilitating the development and implementation of the Sector Codes or Transformation Frameworks in partnership with all the major Stakeholders in all the three sectors by:

  • Promoting equitable access and participation of Black people in the entire agricultural value chain;
  • De-racialising land and enterprise ownership, control, skilled occupations and management of existing and new agricultural enterprise;
  • Unlocking the full entrepreneurial skills and potential of Black people in the sector;
  • Facilitating structural changes in agricultural support systems and development initiatives to assist Black South African in owning, establishing, participating in and running agricultural enterprises;
  • Socially uplifting and restoring the dignity of Black South Africans within the sector;
  • Increasing the extend to which communities, workers, co-operatives and other collective enterprises own and manage existing and new agricultural enterprises, increasing their access to economic activities, infrastructure and skills training.
  • Increasing the extend to which Black women, people living with disabilities and  youth own and manage existing and new enterprises, increasing their access to economic activities, infrastructure and skills training;
  • Empowering rural and local communities to have access to agricultural infrastructure, ownership and skills.

  • Enterprise Development and
  • Socio-Economic Development

The forest enterprises are measured in terms of Forest Sector Code, which was published on the 12th June 2009 in terms of Section 9 (1) of the B-BBEE Act 53 of 2003.
