Resolving the compensation issue would pave the way for re-integration of the white farmers who remain in the country and would be willing to resume farming. The contacts between the CFU and government would have to reach a more serious level for this to become a reality. In particular, a major diplomatic and political shift to ‘give and take’ is needed on the part of government and the other parties.
Major actors in this process will be: the Zimbabwe government, the British government, UNDP, the Southern African Development Community (SADC), CFU, GAPWUZ, donor countries and agencies.
