The labour department told Beeld it had sent Montina Farms, in Modjadjiskloof near Tzaneen, a 21-day contravention notice to comply with departmental regulations or pay the fine.
It said government inspectors had visited the farm previously and issued several warnings.
According to the department, the Limpopo farmer's offences had to do with the provision of food and housing to about 2,000 workers living on 20 farms.
Montina was accused of not paying the minimum wage, enforcing illegal salary deductions and not giving workers their leave pay.
The newspaper reported that the department's deputy director of inspection and enforcement services in Limpopo, Phaswane Tladi, said that said if the farmer did not comply with the notice it could be made an order of the Labour Court.
Montina Farms' owner Kaspaas Pohl did not comment.
