Expanding support to farmers and protecting food value chains
In the early years, the Presidential Employment Stimulus provided production input vouchers to subsistence farmers to assist them back into production after the disruptions of Covid, using a digital application and voucher distribution model. Now, the focus is on supporting expanded production activity, market access and returns to farmers in this sector, with each Province developing and now implementing strategies in this regard.

(Data captured up until March 2025)
The Presidential Employment Stimulus consolidates data reported by participating departments. This data is subject to ongoing verification and audit by departments. The numbers reported may change based on final verification and audit outcomes. Where work opportunities straddle financial years, the audit process requires that they are reported in both years. For example, Teachers Assistants who start work in February and continue into the next financial year. To avoid ‘double counting’ of participants, this is corrected under ‘total opportunities’ reported. Note however that under the performance breakdown, the cumulative annual figures are presented.
