Has Mazoe citrus estates stopped growing oranges?

[Avi8r]

I remember the oranges from Mazoe estates, they shipped in 'net' bags and had QA stickers.
How far we have wandered from our true potential.

The problem with the "new farmers" is that they are motivated primarily if not solely by monetary incentive.
The traditional typical commercial farmer usually had an inherent and genuine passion for farming. This innate nature influenced the decisions they made from inputs to welfare of the workforce. The culmination of these efforts were manifest in the produce.
The new breed of farmer simply lacks the discipline and innate drive to succeeed as a true farmer even though he may have legitimate claim to the sovereign ivhu.

Yes I also believe farming is a lifestyle. My grandpa died loving farming and I am motivated with that.
