The AgriBEE Fund

Background

The AgriBEE Fund is a support programme initiated by the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. It was conceptualized primarily as an intervention to support black owned small agricultural enterprises, previously excluded, to participate in the mainstream economic activities with a view of enhancing the transformation agenda in the sector. The Fund’s mandate was extended to also include promotion of enterprise development initiatives through value add and agro-processing infrastructure (post-production and related infrastructure).

Thus, the aim of this manual is to guide all role players involved in the facilitation to make the programme realise its objectives, and particularly to ensure that eligible applicants for support access the Fund as expeditiously as possible.

In the event of a conflict between any of the provisions of this criteria for funding and the provisions of the Memorandum of Agreement as well as the Operational Manual concluded between the DAFF and the Land Bank, the provisions of the Memorandum of Agreement as well as the Operational Manual shall prevail.

Please note that, the eligibility criteria as per paragraph 4 below holds for all the Fund’s products and that applicants would, at all times, be required to comply fully with the mentioned paragraph and all the other sections of this criteria for funding.
