DescriptionThe Namibian government has taken the first steps in its plan to acquire white-owned farmland.

At least three farm owners are reported to have received letters asking them to enter into negotiations for the purchase of their land.

Earlier this month President Sam Nujoma said some "racist" farmers had been mistreating their black workers.

Namibia has hosted advisers from neighbouring Zimbabwe to help plan the redistribution of farmland.
