Abstract: 

This paper seeks to investigate the impact of child labour on the agricultural sector in Limpopo Province. Poverty around the province appears to play a significant role in the practice of child labour. The South African government has enacted legislation that is directed at banning child labour. The government has addressed the challenge of child labour through increased access to education and child grant support. However, despite all government efforts and initiatives put in place, the serious problem of child labour is still prevalent.
