There’s been more drama linked to Rand Water, following recent water supply issues in Gauteng. This time, a commercial farm is allegedly on the brink of collapse and the bulk water utility is allegedly to blame.

The Madeira Gardens Farm in Midvaal, which started about 70 years ago, alleges that all agriculture activity ceased on the farm in 2019 after Rand Water damaged its irrigation systems during a pipeline restoration project on the land. The owner, Ceasar Fugareu, says he tried to seek help from Rand Water after the crisis. But instead, his cries fell on deaf ears.

The 63-year-old farmer fears that he might soon be bankrupt. He says Rand Water’s negligence has ruined the family business. “So we could not plan and cannot plan while they are in our land. They’ve taken over everything. they do whatever they want to do without ever approaching me.”The 120 hectares of land used to be a profitable commercial farm, that mainly produced beetroot, cabbage, and lettuce. But it’s now reduced to nothing. With the condition of farming equipment and other infrastructure deteriorating.
