[New leadership started asking old farmers to come back. Work their old farm, can’t own it, but grow some food. Not sure how many went back. Don’t think many did.]

Ownership is a social construct. The piece of paper they hand you doesn’t confer ownership. The recognition of ownership claims by the overwhelming majority of the leadership and population does. Until that happens, no foreign farmer will risk his time and money in Rhodesia.
