The project was initiated by the Department with the view to sustain use of natural resources for profitable agricultural production. This project would be launched by MEC Nkwinti at Glen Adelaide Junior Secondary School at Mpheko village in Emalahleni Municipality on 27 January 2006, commencing at 10h00. <p>The objectives of the project according to Mr Mcitheka, the Manager for the project is to:<br> * promote and implement landcare project within local municipality of Emalahleni<br> * eradicate and control noxious weed and invader species<br> * rehabilitation of degraded natural resources<br> * promotion of sustainable land use practices within landcare <p>Mr Mcitheka said the one million was allocated to eradicate noxious weed on an area of 408 hectors. He said workers were hired on a fortnight schedule and were monitored by two supervisors with the guidance of agricultural officers, where a worker received at least 0,6 hectors. This project has had an impact on the community because it has created jobs for 808 temporary workers for a period of four months with a minimum payment of a thousand rands. “There is also an improvement in the general condition of their veld to sustain their livestock which is a source of income for their livelihoods,” added Mcitheka. <p>Enquiries:<br> Thando Sonjica<br> Tel: (040) 6093 402 <p>Mr Mcitheka <br> Cell: 082 4498 434 <p>Issued by: Department of Agriculture, Eastern Cape Provincial Government<br> 26 January 2006<br> Source: Eastern Cape Provincial Government (<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20071025002151/http://www.ecprov.gov.za/">http://www.ecprov.gov.za</a>/) <p> <br/> </div> <!-- Close MainBody --> <noindex> </td> </tr> </table> </td> <td width="15%" align="left" valign="top" bgcolor="#F1F3F3"> </td> </tr> </table> <div align="center"> <center> <table border="0" cellspacing="1" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%" id="AutoNumber1" bgcolor="#ABBCB6"> <tr> <td> </td> <td align="center"> <p class="hyper_foot"> <a href="/web/20071025002151/http://www.info.gov.za/main/about.htm" class="hyper_foot">About the site</a> | <a href="/web/20071025002151/http://www.info.gov.za/main/terms.htm" class="hyper_foot">Terms & conditions</a><br> <font size="1">Developed and maintained by <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20071025002151/http://www.gcis.gov.za/" target="_blank" title="outside link - opens in new window" class="hyper_foot">GCIS</a><br> This site is best viewed using 800 x 600 resolution with <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20071025002151/http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downloads/default.mspx" target="_blank" title="outside link - opens in new window" class="hyper_foot">Internet Explorer 4.5</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20071025002151/http://www.netscape.com/" target="_blank" title="outside link - opens in new window" class="hyper_foot">Netscape Communicator 4.5</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20071025002151/http://www.mozilla.org/products/" title="outside link - opens in new window" target="_blank" class="hyper_foot">Mozilla 1.x</a> or higher. </font></p> </td> <td> </td> </tr> </table> </center> </div> <p id="LastUpd">Last Modified: Tue, 07 Feb 2006 11:50:00 SAST</p> </noindex> </div> <!-- Close Container --> </body> </html> <!-- FILE ARCHIVED ON 00:21:51 Oct 25, 2007 AND RETRIEVED FROM THE INTERNET ARCHIVE ON 21:58:16 Feb 18, 2025.
