Abstract
ONE of the most urgent of many tasks confronting South Africa is to save the soil. The causative evils most frequently cited are faulty pasture management, particularly overstocking, and cultivation of unsuitable land. Behind these lie racial, social and political causes that have influenced the development of South African agriculture. A complete re-organization of agriculture is now imperative.
