FAQ

Common questions

Where do the grants come from?
Mothusi scans agricultural funding programmes from multiple sources: DAFF (Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries) production support and infrastructure grants, CASP (Comprehensive Agricultural Support Programme), Land Bank development loans and blended finance, Land Reform recapitalisation grants (RECAP), all nine provincial Departments of Agriculture, NAMC market development grants, Grain SA emerging farmer programmes, commodity-specific industry body funds, and private sector agricultural development programmes. New programmes are added as they're announced.
How does Mothusi check my eligibility?
Mothusi uses your complete farm profile to match against each programme's criteria: farm size in hectares, location (ward, municipality, district, province), commodities produced, infrastructure status (Big 4 assessment), BEE level, years of farming experience, land tenure type (owned, leased, communal, Land Reform), previous grant history, and demographic factors. Only programmes you actually qualify for are shown — ranked by funding amount, relevance to your farm needs, and application deadline proximity.
Can Mothusi fill in the application for me?
Yes — approximately 90% of most application forms can be pre-filled from your existing farm profile data. Mothusi generates the completed application form, a farm business plan tailored to the specific programme's requirements, the required infrastructure assessment (using your Big 4 data), a production plan based on your commodity records, and a supporting documents checklist. For CASP applications specifically, it creates the infrastructure development plan and 3-year production forecast. You review, sign, and submit.
