Mapped area — Sielsgrond Programme

Sielsgrond Polygon

The specific, mapped area within a farm that is enrolled in the Sielsgrond programme — it can be smaller than the whole farm.

What a Sielsgrond Polygon is

The mapped area a Sielsgrond Programme actually covers.

What it is

A Sielsgrond Polygon is the specific, mapped area within a farm that is enrolled in the Sielsgrond programme. It marks exactly which part of the land carries the recognition — not the whole farm by default.

What it is not

A Sielsgrond Polygon is not the same thing as a farm's overall registered boundary (its Farm Polygon), which is recorded by the Surveyor-General and can contain several different programme areas alongside ordinary farming land. A Sielsgrond Polygon can be smaller than the farm it sits inside, and is not itself the Sielsgrond Programme — it is the mapped area that programme applies to.

Related concepts

A Sielsgrond Polygon sits inside a farm's wider Farm Polygon — its officially registered boundary. A dedicated page for that term is planned for a later implementation batch.

Where this comes from

"Sielsgrond Polygon" follows the polygon terminology convention set out in Buktika's D1 Part 1 legal document's core definitions. It names the mapped area a Sielsgrond Programme applies to, distinct from a farm's wider registered boundary.

This page is a plain-language public explanation. D1 Part 1 remains the sole authoritative source for this term's legal meaning.
