Abstract
This research is an exploratory study, which examines experiences in South African Land Reform Programmes. It focuses on selected beneficiaries of Land Reform in the Bojanala district of the North West Province. The study examines market-led agrarian Reform that emerged out of the pro-market critique of stateled approaches to agrarian reform. The research aims at finding if the South African government is fulfilling its objectives on land reform. Empirical research in the a form of a case study was conducted to establish the problems facing beneficiaries of land reform, to examine their perceptions regarding the existing land reform policies and legislation, and to identify possible solutions. Perceptions of respondents were recorded by way of semi-structured interviews. The results indicate that there is a need to have land reform that is not separate from agricultural restructuring
