For centuries, South African wine farm workers were paid partly in alcohol in what was known as the "dop" or tot system...Post-apartheid implementation of the anti-dop legislation has pretty much called time on it, but ending a practice endemic to the region's social and economic culture has not been without consequences..."All those things together have meant that farm workers are now buying liquor with their very small wage...[s]o there is a problem of hunger on farms...."said [Susan Levine, researcher at the University of Cape Town]. ...Gerrie Jonk, head of...NGO, Afrikaanse Christelike Vroue Vereniging, [said]: "Children are left at home alone with no food, or babies will get sugar water and tea. Drunken parents are not looking after children, who wander around. Rape is common."...Levine commented: "Ultimately it's not the government's responsibility - [intervention] has to be a negotiated relationship between farmers, landowners, and wine distributors."
