Cape Town: Institute for Poverty Land and Agrarian Studies (PLAAS).http://hdl.handle.net/10566/4603Our paper is on commercial farming and agribusiness in South Africa and their changing roles in Africa’s agro-food system, as a response to debates and theoretical propositions about internal agrarian change in BRICS countries and their relations with other middle-income countries and the old hubs of capital. South Africa is of course an outlier among the BRICS group of countries, given its far smaller economy, and was included only in 2010, as the only candidate that could be seen as economically and politically dominant in Africa – though by last year, Nigeria had overtaken South Africa as the largest economy in Africa.enCommercial farmingAgribusinessSouth AfricaAgro-food systemsAfricaOther
