School of Public Leadership.ENGLISH SUMMARY : The first democratic government of South Africa when it took power in April 1994 was faced with the challenge of transforming the past injustice of the dispossession of right in land. This can hence be seen as the process that started in 1930. Faced with the need to balance strong demand from the dispossessed with the need to preserve the commercial farming sector and a fragile political compromise, the government opted for a three-prolonged land reform policy, one of land restitution, land tenure reform and land redistribution. Following promulgation of the Restitution of Land Rights Acts, No, 22 of 1994, members of the public were invited to submit land claims before a deadline that was extended to 13 December 1998. This study will focus on the land that has successfully claimed by Chief Taketsi Pheeha Morudu of the Tale Gamorudu tribe. This land is located in the Lephalale Local Municipality which is under Waterberg District of Limpopo Province of South Africa. Following the historical agricultural production potential of the land, the study examines different agricultural developmental opportunities that can best benefit the current beneficiaries without sacrificing the opportunities for the future generation to benefit from the same land. The rationale behind is to develop the developmental project plan guided by the typology that can best integrate the social, economic and environmental dimensions. The study is mainly based on qualitative data collected from the stakeholders. These include: Limpopo Department of Agriculture, Department of Land Affairs, Department of Water and Forestry, the beneficiaries, and Members of the Lephalale Local Municipality. Data was mainly collected through personal interviews. In addition, the study also relied on a review of various literatures providing insight under study.
