sells to the trading company once they have dried . Jacob earns R100 for each
100kg he sells . This money has to last him 6 months until he can sell the next
harvest . Jacob has to feed his family with this money as he is only a bread
winner. The trader then sells Jacobs harvest to the producer for R 1000.00 ,
making a massive profit out of trading .
