    A Country of Two Agricultures

    Nearly three decades after the dawn of democracy, South Africa has remained a country of 'two agricultures'. On the one hand we have a subsistence, primarily non-commercial, black farming segment. On the other hand, however, we have a predominantly commercial and white farming sector that is well-resourced and has access to domestic and international trade networks.
These disparities can be traced back to South Africa's painful history where, for decades, black farmers were on the margins of government support and also experienced land dispossession and livestock plunder.
A Country of Two Agricultures focuses less on history and more on the present and the future, explaining why these disparities have persisted in the democratic era, and what it will take to overcome them. It aims to contribute to a better understanding of the variety of agricultural forces, taking into account both questions of domestic political economy and external factors, as well as to bring to light new risks and opportunities.
Wandile Sihlobo offers insights into the role of agriculture in the South African economy from an agricultural economy perspective, and provides political economy insights that are rooted in the experiences of farming communities on the ground and right through the value chain.
Beyond insights on the realities this book offers the government, the private sector, and anyone interested in the betterment of the South African economy, tools to grapple with this duality, and proposes a framework for bolstering the black farming segment for growth and competitiveness – and ultimately food security.
Wandile Sihlobo is the Chief Economist of the Agricultural Business Chamber of South Africa (Agbiz) and the author of Finding Common Ground: Land, Equity and Agriculture.

    This second edition has been revised and expanded, offering updated material and further insight into this profoundly draining condition. Today, with the ever-intensifying social media sequestering interpersonal relationships, sadly many are finding anxiety and panic to be part of a spiteful entourage that intrusively invades our ever-demanding lifestyles. As the pace of life quickens with each passing day, these uninvited foes keep trying to seize control of our minds and bodies and make us feel feeble, entrapped, and defenseless. Age, gender, ethnicity, and socioeconomic class all seem irrelevant when it comes to suffering anxiety and panic attacks. 
The purpose of this book is to provide you, the reader, with an enhanced understanding of panic attacks and anxiety, their causes, and their main features. Additionally, it is designed to embed within you an attitude that enables you to reclaim the authority or self-control that panic and anxiety may have stripped away. Despite what you may be feeling now, always appreciate that it is neither our anxieties nor our panic that define who we really are. 
In this book you will find an awesome weapon that will help you change the way you relate to anxiety and panic and ultimately dominate them. Having said that, the reader should keep in mind that the road to recovery may not be a straight or comfortable one. Ups and downs, twists, and turns will be part of the journey. However, rest assured that you will find your way to a life free of anxiety and panic when you achieve the attitude alteration and concept lock-in presented in this book.  Know that when it comes to defeating anxiety and panic, knowledge is truly king.
