A farmer was murdered every 4.7 days in South Africa last year. Farm attacks in that nation totaled 446 in 2020, or about 1.3 attacks each day on average. The attacks resulted in 77 murders. Compared to 2019 when 453 attacks occurred, the number of farm attacks decreased slightly. However, the number of deaths nearly doubled in 2020. There were “only” 48 farm murders in 2019. With few exceptions, attackers were black and victims white. [ToekomsVonk — Plaasaanvalle- en Moorde]
Farm attacks are an expression of a much wider crime problem for South Africans. The nation ranks third behind Venezuela and Papua New Guinea as the most crime-ridden of the planet’s 195 nations.
The trend is continuing in 2021. Below are a few notable examples from January.
Bobby and Elmarie Burger were brutally attacked at their Klipspruit farm. The attack occurred just after 4:00 a.m., reports say. The couple were transported in serious condition to a local hospital after three attackers brutally assaulted them. The incident occurred January 25, 2021.

The murders occurred in Mokopane, South Africa. While not a farm murder, the crimes highlight the culture of violence with which whites must co-exist in South Africa.

A 77-year-old farm manager was stabbed before his attackers attempted to drown him in a septic tank. Reports say the victim was pelted with stones during the ordeal. Three attackers were involved. The victim was rescued by neighboring farmers. When police were contacted, they failed to respond. Apparently, the police had no vehicle available at the time. Unusually, this was a black on black farm attack.

As a concluding caveat for consideration is this fact: Of the 132 countries listed on the afore mentioned ranking of countries by crime rates, the top forty-nine most crime-prone have majority non-white populations. The USA ranks 50th. [Crime Rate by Country 2021, World Population Review] The fifty countries with the lowest crime rates tend to be predominantly white, East Asian, or are controlled by authoritarian Islamic governments.
