    Farms 25/77 NQ and 27/77N0, located in North East District, were acquired by the Government from the freeholder, Mr Blackbeard in 1990. The purchase followed the recommendations of the consultants appointed to conduct the feasibility study of the Lower Shashe dam (SMEC, 1990), and had the objective of providing compensatory land for Matopi villagers who need to be relocated before flooding of the reservoir. During the latter part of 1990, the Tati Land Board proposed compensating Matop i residents by relocating them within the bounds of farms 25/77 and 27/77NQ. As a portion of the farm had been developed for irrigated agriculture, however, the Ministry of Agriculture was concerned that this resource should not be wasted, and that any potential for expansion of the irrigated area be investigated prior to land allocation. A study was therefore initiated in late 1990 by the Ministry of Agriculture to evaluate the farm for alternative land use options including resettlem ent of Matopi people. This study concluded that the potential for expanding the present irrigated area was limited.
